The posting

Commercial Litigation Associate (2–10 Years Experience)

  • Full-time position
  • Location: Albany, NY

Our client is a highly respected, thriving regional law firm representing businesses, business owners, financial institutions, developers and high-net worth individuals and families. It seeks a Commercial Litigation Associate to join its growing Albany office. This is a unique opportunity to work alongside accomplished attorneys on sophisticated, high-level business litigation matters without the pressure of rigid billable hour requirements.

The Opportunity

This role is ideal for an attorney who wants to do meaningful, complex work while developing under experienced mentors. You will gain hands-on exposure across all phases of litigation and play a critical role in driving client outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support all aspects of commercial litigation matters from inception through resolution
  • Draft pleadings, motions, briefs, and legal memoranda
  • Conduct legal research and contribute to case strategy
  • Handle discovery processes, including e-discovery and document review
  • Participate in depositions, hearings, and trial
  • Collaborate closely with partners and clients on case strategy

Ideal Background

  • 2–10 years of experience in commercial or business litigation
  • Strong writing, analytical, and advocacy skills
  • Experience with pleadings, motion practice, discovery, trial prep
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • JD from an accredited law school and admission to the New York Bar

Candidates whose experience is limited to personal injury, insurance defense, consumer credit or residential/foreclosure work are not the ideal fit for this role.

What Sets This Opportunity Apart

  • Exceptional reputation in high-stakes litigation on behalf of Long Island, NYC and Capital Region clients
  • Exposure to complex business disputes litigated in state and federal courts
  • No rigid billable hour pressure, allowing focus on quality work and life
  • Direct access to highly experienced colleagues, many with large-firm backgrounds
  • Strong investment in the Albany market with a mandate for long-term growth
  • Collaborative, team-oriented culture with extremely high retention

Compensation and Benefits

  • Competitive base salary of $120,000–$200,000, commensurate with experience
  • Performance-based bonus structures that includes an automatic productivity bonus as well as annual discretionary bonus
  • Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, 401(k), parking and PTO

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.
