Managing Attorney - Construction Litigation

Wyman Legal Solutions is a niche residential construction law firm built for homeowners. We help people before, during, and after custom home builds and major renovations when projects go sideways on time, money, scope, and quality. We do high-touch advisory, contract drafting, fixed-fee pre-litigation, and selective litigation when it is truly the right move.

We are hiring a Managing Attorney because we need a real legal leader inside the work. This role is for someone who can run legal production, keep matters moving, protect client trust, and keep the firm’s case management system accurate enough that leadership can see the truth without chasing it.

We need a strong, seasoned litigation attorney who can run files, lead clients, direct the legal team, and drive matters to resolution with urgency, judgment, and control. This is not an “extra hands” role. This is a leadership seat at work. This is the person who makes legal production predictable. If you want autonomy, ownership, and the chance to run the engine, this role will feel like home.

You will be successful in this role if you can:

• Evaluate and control a case early. You identify leverage, risk, and the cleanest path to resolution without letting files drift.
• Run litigation with foresight and momentum. You move pleadings, discovery, depositions, and motion practice forward on a deliberate timetable. You do not let opposing counsel’s delay tactics become lost months.
• Handle clients well. Homeowners are emotionally invested and often overwhelmed. You communicate clearly, set expectations, and maintain client confidence even when the news is hard.
• Negotiate like a litigator. You prepare cases for trial posture, and you use that posture to drive better settlements.
• Lead the legal team day-to-day. You delegate cleanly, give usable direction, and you hold standards without drama.
• Operate with discipline. You keep files organized, deadlines protected, and timekeeping reliable. We use a case management platform and standard reporting tools to keep matters visible and moving, and you are expected to work inside that structure.
