Construction Litigation Attorney

If your current role keeps you buried in research, drafting, or expert coordination with little client exposure or ownership, this position is designed to move you forward.

My client is growing its construction litigation practice and is seeking an attorney who wants real responsibility, visible impact, and direct involvement in complex disputes. This is not a support role. You'll be trusted with managing matters, shaping strategy, and working closely with clients across the construction industry.

The practice handles a mix of construction defect litigation, commercial contract disputes, delay and scope claims, and risk-transfer issues, representing contractors, developers, design professionals, and insurers. You'll play an active role in discovery, depositions, negotiations, mediations, and, when necessary, trial preparation.

This is an environment where attorneys are given room to operate, judgment is valued, and advancement is based on capability-not waiting your turn.

What You'll Be Doing

• Manage construction and commercial litigation matters from early strategy through resolution
• Take and defend depositions, handle written discovery, and draft dispositive and pretrial motions
• Work directly with clients, experts, and opposing counsel
• Participate in mediations and settlement negotiations
• Collaborate with experienced litigators without being buried under layers of review
  
  

Who This Is a Fit For

• 3-10 years of experience in construction litigation or complex commercial litigation
• Comfortable taking ownership of files and communicating directly with clients
• Experience with discovery, motion practice, and depositions; construction defect experience a plus
• Organized, efficient, and capable of managing multiple matters without constant oversight
• Interested in a long-term platform with sustainable expectations and room to grow
  
  

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Meaningful responsibility earlier than most comparable roles
• A growing practice where your contributions are visible and valued
• Sophisticated construction matters without big-firm bureaucracy
• A stable platform designed for longevity, not burnout
  
  

If you're ready for a role where your work shapes outcomes-and where you're trusted to practice like a real litigator-this is a strong next step.
