Job Details:

Associate Attorney – Landlord-Tenant Litigation

Join a Fast-Growing NYC Real Estate Law Practice

Location: Midtown Manhattan, New York City

Build Your Litigation Career Where You'll Actually Be in Court

Are you looking for more than a desk job?

Do you want to sharpen your litigation skills, make courtroom appearances on a regular basis, and become a trusted advocate in one of New York City's most active areas of law?

Our client is seeking a confident, motivated Associate Attorney who wants to take ownership of cases, gain meaningful courtroom experience, and grow with a thriving, entrepreneurial law practice.

This is an opportunity to join a respected boutique firm where attorneys are trusted with real responsibility, work directly with experienced legal professionals, and play an important role in the firm's continued growth. You'll gain hands-on litigation experience, not spend your days buried in paperwork.

If you're looking for a place where your work matters, your voice is heard, and your career can accelerate, we'd love to hear from you.

Why You'll Love This Opportunity

✔ Frequent courtroom appearances throughout all five NYC boroughs

✔ Handle your own cases with real responsibility and autonomy

✔ Work alongside experienced attorneys with decades of litigation experience

✔ Thrive in a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment where your contributions are recognized

✔ Join a growing boutique practice with excellent long-term career potential

✔ Midtown Manhattan office serving a diverse and active client base

What You'll Do

• Represent clients in Housing Court and other courts throughout New York City's five boroughs

• Manage landlord-tenant litigation matters from inception through resolution

• Draft pleadings, motions, affirmations, legal correspondence, and court filings

• Conduct legal research and prepare for hearings, conferences, and trials

• Negotiate settlements and advocate effectively on behalf of clients

• Communicate professionally with clients, opposing counsel, and court personnel

• Independently manage deadlines while delivering exceptional client service

What We're Looking For

• Active New York State Bar membership in good standing

• 3+ years of landlord-tenant litigation experience

• Strong courtroom presence and litigation skills

• Excellent legal writing, research, and analytical abilities

• Outstanding communication and negotiation skills

• Highly organized with exceptional case management abilities

• Self-starter who works well with minimal supervision

• Reside within commuting distance of New York City

• Available for regular in-person court appearances throughout all five boroughs

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This is an outstanding opportunity for an attorney who enjoys litigation and wants to build a long-term career with a growing practice. Rather than being one of hundreds of attorneys in a large organization, you'll become an integral member of a close-knit legal team where your contributions are valued, your courtroom skills continue to develop, and your professional growth is encouraged.

If you're ambitious, dependable, and ready to take ownership of your practice, this position offers the opportunity to accelerate your career while working on challenging and rewarding litigation matters throughout New York City.

Ready to take the next step? We'd love to speak with you.
