A bit about us:

We’re partnering with a well-established, growth-oriented law firm in Buffalo that is actively seeking a Litigation Attorney with defense experience to step into a high-impact role. This is not a “sit in the back room and review docs” position—you’ll be trusted with meaningful responsibility, client interaction, and a clear path to advancement. They are looking for either a junior attorney or senior level principal attorney.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Immediate hands-on litigation experience – Manage cases, take depositions, and get real courtroom exposure
Diverse caseload – Work across commercial, insurance, employment, construction, and professional liability matters
Supportive, collaborative environment – Work alongside experienced attorneys who are invested in mentorship and development
Stability growth – Join a firm with a strong reputation and consistent pipeline of work
Clear expectations – Billable structure that’s achievable and aligned with quality work—not burnout


Why join us?

What We’re Looking For:
1 years of defense litigation experience
Strong writing, analytical, and courtroom skills
Ability to independently manage a caseload
Licensed (or eligible) to practice in New York


Job Details

Handle a variety of defense litigation matters from inception through resolution
Draft pleadings, motions, and discovery
Take and defend depositions
Represent clients in court appearances and hearings
Collaborate with partners and clients on case strategy
