The Role
We are continuing to expand our senior litigation team and are seeking experienced attorneys (8+ years) with a strong background in construction-related defense work and broader civil litigation.
This role is geared toward litigators who are comfortable handling complex construction defect matters while also managing general liability, product liability, professional liability, and related insurance defense cases. Depending on office location, the emphasis may lean more heavily toward construction litigation.
We are looking for attorneys who can independently manage a meaningful caseload, mentor junior team members when needed, and operate with a high level of autonomy while collaborating with partners.

Conduct depositions, hearings, mediations, and trial preparation
Draft and argue substantive motions, including dispositive motions
Evaluate contracts, project documentation, and expert reports in construction disputes
Develop case strategy in coordination with clients and firm leadership
Handle insurance carrier reporting and maintain organized file management
Accurately record and manage billable time
Depending on office needs, attorneys may also handle matters involving:
General liability
Personal injury defense
Product liability
Professional liability
Qualifications
8+ years of civil litigation experience
Significant construction litigation or construction defect defense experience
Insurance defense background strongly preferred
Proven motion practice and deposition experience
Ability to independently manage cases from suit inception to resolution
Trial preparation experience preferred
Juris Doctor required
Must be licensed in the state where located; additional neighboring state admissions are a plus
Why Join Us
Established multi-office civil defense platform with steady growth
Active construction litigation docket with consistent case flow
Senior-level autonomy and direct client access
Hybrid work structure (location-dependent)
Broad litigation exposure beyond a single niche practice
Long-term stability with structured compensation progression
We are seeking experienced litigators who want meaningful responsibility, consistent case flow, and the opportunity to continue building their construction defense practice within a collaborative regional platform.
