The Opportunity

The Entrepreneur: You don’t wait for instructions. You see a need and fill it. You are motivated by the idea of growing a practice and eventually managing your own clients.

The Sophisticated Generalist: You enjoy the variety of shifting between a real estate closing, a corporate transaction, and a strategic commercial litigation filing.

The Relationship Builder: You genuinely enjoy people. You understand that law is a service business and you are eager to network, attend events, and cultivate professional relationships.

The Craftsman: You have impeccable credentials and take immense pride in your writing. Your briefs are persuasive, and your contracts are airtight.

Your Role & Responsibilities

  • Direct Impact: You will have direct client contact from Day 1. You won't be hidden away in your office; you will be at the table.
  • Transactional Execution: Lead and support corporate formations, structuring, private client matters, and real estate transactions.
  • Strategic Litigation: Handle commercial and business litigation matters, from drafting pleadings to appearing in court.
  • Business Development: We don’t just "allow" networking – it’s expected and we support it. You will be encouraged (including financially) to begin building your own book of business with the firm’s full mentorship.

Qualifications

  • At least 2 years of experience in corporate, real estate, or litigation (ideally a mix).
  • Exceptional writing and communication skills.
  • Admitted to practice in Connecticut and New York (or the ability to waive in).
  • A "Self-Starter" Mindset: You are comfortable working independently and are highly organized.

Benefits

  • 401(k) plan with profit-sharing opportunities.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage.
  • Competitive and commensurate with experience salary.
