Why This Is a Great Opportunity

  • Handle sophisticated, high-stakes litigation while gaining significantly more client responsibility than is typical at a large firm.
  • Work directly on complex commercial disputes, business litigation, employment litigation, and other sophisticated matters.
  • Gain meaningful courtroom, trial, and arbitration exposure rather than spending your career focused primarily on document review.
  • Join an experienced boutique litigation team where your work has a visible impact on case strategy and client outcomes.
  • Enjoy a hybrid work environment with flexibility while remaining closely connected to the team.
  • Relocation assistance may be available for the right candidate.

Note

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
