Mid-Level Litigation Associate Attorney
📍 Parsippany, New Jersey
đź’° $100,000 - $140,000
🏢 Full Time
**About This Opportunity**
If you’re a mid-level litigator who’s ready to stop just assisting and start owning your cases, this is your moment. At KnowHireMatch.com, we’re partnering with a premier Northeast litigation firm that doesn’t just talk about mentorship and growth—they build it into how they work. You’ll step into a collaborative, AV-rated environment where partners actually invest in your development, and where your day-to-day includes real courtroom exposure, direct client contact, and the kind of hands-on responsibility that accelerates a career. If you’re looking for a place that values your judgment as much as your billable hours, read on.
**What You’ll Do**
You’ll manage civil litigation matters from the first filing to the final resolution. That means drafting pleadings, motions, and discovery requests with precision, and arguing them with confidence. You’ll appear in New Jersey state and federal courts for depositions, hearings, and trials—taking and defending fact witness and expert depositions along the way. You’ll work side-by-side with partners, senior attorneys, clients, and experts, developing litigation strategies that actually move the needle. And you’ll keep clients informed and strategic, not just updated. Compliance with deadlines is non-negotiable; high standards of advocacy are the baseline.
**What You Bring**
- A Juris Doctor from an ABA-accredited law school.
- Active New Jersey Bar admission in good standing.
- 4–7 years of civil litigation experience, with a track record in New Jersey state and federal courts.
- Strong advocacy chops—you’ve drafted and argued dispositive motions, and you’re comfortable in the weeds of discovery and deposition practice.
- Excellent communication, organizational, and time-management skills.
- The ability to work independently while thriving in a collaborative team environment.
**Why This Role Stands Out**
- **Real ownership.** You won’t be a background player. You’ll have meaningful case responsibility and direct client interaction from day one.
- **Courtroom time.** This isn’t a desk job—you’ll get hands-on litigation experience that builds your reputation.
- **Mentorship that matters.** Work with AV-rated attorneys and senior litigators who actually want to see you grow.
- **Hybrid flexibility.** A schedule that supports your life, not just your caseload.
- **Long-term growth.** Ongoing professional development and a clear path to partnership at one of the Northeast’s top litigation firms.
**Compensation & Benefits**
- **Salary:** $100,000 – $140,000 per year
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) plan with company match
- Life insurance
- Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
- Flexible paid time off
- Employee development programs
