$170k - $250k

The Stevens & Lee Companies

Job Description

Job Description

Powerful Partnerships. Standout Solutions.

Among the 200 largest law firms in the country, Stevens & Lee is a full-service law firm with 230 lawyers serving clients from 19 offices. Our lawyers provide strategic and practical legal counsel at both the regional and national levels and remain dedicated to solving clients' most complex problems and delivering an exceptional client experience. The firm is the cornerstone of The Stevens & Lee Companies, a platform of affiliated professional service firms that provide a full range of legal, investment banking, financial advisory, insurance risk management, public affairs and government consulting services. 

Stevens & Lee's Litigation Group consists of more than 60 attorneys, including over 15 associates. Our litigators are problem-solvers who deliver efficient, desired outcomes to clients facing disputes. The continued growth and expansion of our practice have created the need for a skilled, upper-level associate with 4-7 years of commercial litigation experience in Delaware. This position offers the opportunity for hands-on litigation, including courtroom experience and deposition practice (taking and defending).

If you have developed skills in these areas and are looking to gain additional substantive experience with increased responsibility, all while working in a collegial environment, we would like to talk with you. We seek highly motivated, growth-oriented individuals. Excellent oral and written communication skills, strong organizational skills, attention to detail and the ability to multi-task are prerequisites. We seek self-starters with the ability to work individually and in teams.

Ideal candidates will have meaningful experience in the following areas:

  • DE Chancery Court
  • Deposition practice
  • Discovery and eDiscovery
  • Oral argument
  • Witness preparation
  • Drafting of pleadings, motions, and briefs
  • Experience with trials and class actions, though not required, is a plus.

Candidates must be licensed to practice law in Delaware. PA or NJ admission a plus.

Stevens & Lee offers associates immediate, hands-on experience and accelerated career opportunities. We provide competitive salaries, discretionary bonuses and excellent benefits including an annual contribution of 10% of an employee's gross compensation to Stevens & Lee's defined contribution profit sharing plan, vesting in three years, and 100% coverage of the health care premium for all employees.

The base annual pay range for this full-time role is between $170,000 and $250,000. The actual salary will be determined based upon individual qualifications and prior relevant experience with consideration given to office location.

In compliance with federal and state equal opportunity employment laws, The Stevens & Lee Companies is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate in regard to race, color, national origin, religion, disability, age, or gender.
