    Description

    An AMLaw 200 firm is seeking a high-performing Business and Commercial Litigation Associate (4–5 years PQE) to join its elite disputes team. This is a career-defining opportunity for a litigation lawyer ready to accelerate their progression, gain front-line responsibility, and work on complex, high-value commercial disputes.

    Not sure what skills you will need for this opportunity Simply read the full description below to get a complete picture of candidate requirements.

    This role offers exceptional courtroom exposure, client access, and real responsibility beyond what is typical at this level.

    Why This Role Stands Out

    • Work on high-profile, complex litigation matters
    • Direct client exposure and courtroom advocacy
    • Early leadership and mentoring responsibility
    • Fast-track progression within the litigation practice
    • Elite training, mentoring, and professional development
    • Collaborative, entrepreneurial culture

    This firm is known for developing top litigation talent, giving associates real ownership of cases, meaningful court experience, and direct involvement in strategy, trial preparation, and client relationships.

    The Opportunity

    You will handle complex business and commercial disputes from start to finish, including:

    • Managing all phases of sophisticated litigation matters
    • Drafting pleadings, motions, briefs, and discovery materials
    • Appearing in court for hearings, conferences, and oral arguments
    • Taking and defending depositions
    • Managing discovery strategy and execution
    • Assisting with trials, arbitrations, and settlement negotiations
    • Advising clients and contributing to litigation strategy
    • Mentoring junior associates and support staff
    • Participating in business development and client meetings

    This is a front-line litigation role, not a back-office support position.

    What They Are Looking For

    • 4–6 years' experience in business or commercial litigation
    • Strong experience in complex commercial disputes
    • Proven ability to run matters with increasing independence
    • Courtroom experience including court conferences and depositions
    • Excellent writing, research, and advocacy skills
    • JD from a top-tier law school with strong academic credentials
    • A collaborative mindset and commercial approach

    Why Make This Move Now

    This is a strategic career move for litigation associates who want:

    • More courtroom exposure
    • Earlier leadership responsibility
    • Faster long-term progression

    Confidential inquiries are welcome. Message directly for a discreet discussion. xhmxlyz

    Please only apply for this position if you have 4+ yrs experience within a Commercial Litigation practice.
