What are the responsibilities and job description for the Principal or Counsel – Commercial Litigation position at Offit Kurman?

Principal or Senior Counsel – Litigation (New Jersey)

New Jersey (required for in-person court appearances)

Offit Kurman, an Am Law 200 firm, is seeking an experienced litigation attorney at the Principal or Senior Counsel level (including new Principals) to join our New Jersey office. We are looking for a litigator with 7–10 years of experience, exposure to complex commercial matters, and a small portable book of business who can independently handle a broad range of litigation work.

This attorney will take on matters from other partners and support complex litigation across the firm, managing cases from inception through resolution—including drafting, discovery, depositions, motions, and court appearances. Because this role requires regular attendance in New Jersey courts, the attorney must be based in, or able to work onsite in, NJ.

Requirements:

• 7–10 years of litigation experience, including complex matters

• New Jersey Bar admission required; New York Bar preferred

• Proven ability to independently run cases and provide litigation support

• Strong analytical, writing, and courtroom skills

Why Offit Kurman:

• Strong national platform with significant cross-selling opportunities

• Collaborative, entrepreneurial environment for both production attorneys and business generators

• Business development resources, coaching, and support

• Competitive compensation aligned with growth and productivity

• Administrative support that allows attorneys to focus on client service

If you are an experienced litigator seeking a platform to build, contribute, and elevate your practice, we welcome a confidential conversation.

Agency resumes are welcome. Please send to Jaclyn Famiglietti.
