    Job Description

    Marten Law is leading the charge as a national leader in environmental, natural resource and energy law. Our team of lawyers includes recognized authorities in alternative energy, climate change, air quality, hazardous and solid waste, water resources and water quality, fisheries, environmental review and permitting, and a host of other issues that our business and public clients confront every day. Unlike general practice firms, we focus on one practice area, so that we can be the best at it in the country. This has allowed our firm to represent clients in some of the most important energy and environmental matters nationally. Founded in 2002, Marten Law has increased the firm's size by more than 50%, growing to more 20 attorneys. We are looking to continue on this trajectory by building a culture where the best environmental attorneys and legal staff can thrive.

    Marten Law LLP seeks a partner-level attorney to work in our Washington D.C. office. The successful candidate must have at least ten (10) years of experience within environmental law, ideally within complex litigation, including managing litigation teams of attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants.

    • Interpersonal Skills. Must be both decisive and collaborative, demonstrate strong verbal communication skills, and exhibit well-developed emotional intelligence.
    • Writing. Must produce superior written product. Experience as the primary author of client memoranda, arbitration and mediation briefs, motions, and/or appellate briefing is required.
