Associate, International Disputes and Investigations (New York)

Operating at the intersection of law, investigations, and strategy, Wolf Global combines litigation and trial experience with global investigations and crisis management experience to find and create solutions to complex, high priority, high exposure situations, cases, and crises.

Wolf Global is seeking an experienced litigator capable of straddling the disputes practice of Wolf, P.A. and the investigations and intelligence practice of Wolf Global.

About the Role

No matter where you have worked before, this will be different: An opportunity to combine your litigation and trial experience with the capabilities and resources of Wolf Global, working on cross border, cross cultural matters that involve:

• International private wealth and corporate disputes
• Strategic use of § 1782
• Asset tracing and asset recovery
• Strategic and specialized investigations

You will work directly with firm leadership, integrating litigation, strategy, and intelligence in a way that produces, not merely activity in cases, but results.

Ideal experience includes most or all of the following:

• International litigation
• Litigation involving § 1782

Most importantly, we want someone whose litigation instincts, familiarity with the rules of procedure, strategic discipline, and persuasive abilities inspire confidence. Your writing should be excellent. Your advocacy should be effective. Your judgment should be able to be trusted.

We are looking for someone who can handle a courtroom while leveraging our investigative and strategic strengths.

We are especially interested in:

• AmLaw 50/100 lawyers seeking meaningful work, greater autonomy, and an environment where they can excel
• Lawyers stepping out of BigLaw who want to handle significant international disputes
• Exceptional litigators capable of leading high priority, high exposure cases from start to finish

Compensation models, billing rates, and cost structures will be addressed once the candidate profile is narrowed.

What We Offer

• Exposure to global clients and complex challenges
• A front row seat to matters of consequence
• Opportunities for mentorship, growth, and leadership

Qualifications

• 5+ years of litigation experience
