A bit about us:

We are a well-established and highly regarded regional business law firm based in Tysons, Virginia. Our attorneys represent businesses and organizations on sophisticated legal matters across a range of practice areas.

We have built a collaborative, team-oriented environment where attorneys work closely with colleagues and clients and have the opportunity to take on meaningful responsibility early in their careers.

Our culture combines the resources and sophistication needed to handle complex matters with the accessibility and collegiality of a close-knit regional firm. We value high-quality legal work, strong client relationships, professional development, and maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

Why join us?

Sophisticated legal work – Work on challenging employment, restrictive covenant, and business litigation matters.
Meaningful responsibility – Gain direct client exposure and contribute to substantive matters rather than simply performing background research.
Collaborative culture – Work alongside attorneys across employment, business, government contracts, IP, and corporate practices.
Strong work-life balance – A 1,600-hour annual billable target provides a more sustainable workload than many comparable firms.
Hybrid flexibility – After the first 90 days, attorneys may work remotely Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Competitive compensation – $125,000-$160,000 base salary, plus a competitive benefits package.
Professional development – Build expertise in multiple areas of business and employment law while working with experienced attorneys.
Long-term opportunity – Join an established firm where attorneys are valued for both their legal skills and their contributions to the team.

Job Details

A well-established and highly regarded Tysons-based regional business law firm is seeking a Litigation Associate with 2-4 years of civil litigation experience to join its busy and growing employment and business law practice.

This is an excellent opportunity for an attorney who wants exposure to sophisticated matters, meaningful client interaction, and a broad range of litigation and counseling work while working in a supportive and collaborative environment.

The Opportunity:
The attorney will primarily support the firm's employment and business law team and will work on matters involving:
  • Employment defense litigation
  • Restrictive covenant and non-compete litigation
  • Business and commercial litigation
  • Employment counseling
  • Business counseling
  • Related transactional matters
Because of the firm's collaborative approach, the associate will also have opportunities to interact with attorneys across other practice areas, including government contracts, intellectual property, and corporate law.

The role offers the opportunity to work on sophisticated matters while developing strong legal research, writing, litigation, and client-management skills.

What We're Looking For:
  • 2-4 years of experience practicing civil litigation
  • Active Virginia Bar membership in good standing
  • Excellent analytical, writing, and oral communication skills
  • Strong legal research and writing abilities
  • Ability to produce timely, high-quality work
  • Ability and willingness to quickly learn new subject matter
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
  • Ability to work effectively in a collaborative, team-oriented environment
  • Judicial clerkship experience is preferred
Compensation & Schedule:
  • Base Salary: $125,000-$160,000
  • Annual Billable Target: 1,600 hours
  • Location: Tysons, Virginia
  • Hybrid Schedule: After the first 90 days, attorneys may work remotely on Tuesdays and Thursdays
  • In-Office: Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays
  • Bar: Virginia
  • Benefits: Competitive benefits package
Why This Opportunity?
This is a particularly attractive opportunity for a junior litigator who wants high-quality work without the traditional big-law lifestyle. The successful candidate will receive meaningful exposure to clients and sophisticated matters, work closely with experienced attorneys, and have the opportunity to develop both litigation and business-law expertise within a collegial environment.
