Attorney - Medical Malpractice

$175k

We Are Legal Revolution

Job Description

Medical Malpractice Attorney | Manhattan, NY (Hybrid) – $175K

\n

\n

Location/Schedule: Manhattan, NY (Hybrid)

\n

Base Salary: $175K, plus a billable bonus and a discretionary bonus

\n

Practice: Medical malpractice defense for hospitals, physician groups, and carriers. Obstetrics, surgery, neurosurgery, radiology, emergency medicine. High-exposure files. Not a general-liability seat.

\n

\n

Our client has defended healthcare providers for more than 100 years. About 90 lawyers. Fifty major healthcare providers. Recent results include a unanimous defense verdict in Westchester and a defense verdict on a post-hysterectomy bowel case in Nassau. 20+ lawyers made the 2026 New York Metro Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists. Most partners are on the malpractice team, which is who you learn from.

\n

\n

Why You Should Join:

\n
    \n
  • Defense Verdicts, Recently – Unanimous verdict in a podiatry amputation case, December 2025. Another in a surgical bowel case. This office still tries malpractice files.
  • \n
  • A 100-Year Healthcare Defense Firm – Hospitals and physician groups, about 50 major providers. The docket is already there.
  • \n
  • You Learn This Practice From People Who Only Do It – Most partners are malpractice lawyers. Depositions, experts, and trial are taught, not assumed.
  • \n
  • 26 Super Lawyers and Rising Stars in 2026 – The group you would sit with is ranked. That shows up on a résumé.
  • \n
  • $175K, With a Bonus – Billable bonus plus a discretionary bonus. Manhattan malpractice defense, not a volume GL rate.
  • \n
\n

\n

What You’ll Actually Do:

\n
    \n
  • Defend physicians and hospitals in malpractice actions in New York courts.
  • \n
  • Coordinate experts and prepare them for deposition.
  • \n
  • Take and defend fact and expert depositions.
  • \n
  • Draft summary judgment motions and prepare cases for trial.
  • \n
\n

\n

Requirements:

\n
    \n
  • JD and active New York bar
  • \n
  • 2–8 years post-bar medical malpractice defense or complex civil litigation - current Associate, Counsel, or Partner
  • \n
  • Deposition or expert-coordination experience is a plus; strong motion writing is required
  • \n
\n

No one fits every box perfectly - if you’re a practicing litigator who wants malpractice defense, trial exposure, and $175K in Manhattan, let’s talk confidentially.
