Commercial Litigation Associate Attorney

Aligned Talent Acquisition

Job Description

Job Description

Commercial Litigation Associate Attorney

Current & Future Opportunities | Confidential Career Conversations

Love the work but wondering if there's a better firm fit out there?

You can enjoy practicing law and still wonder whether another firm might offer more sophisticated cases, better mentorship, or a healthier balance between your career and personal life.

Aligned Talent Acquisition is continually interested in connecting with Commercial Litigation Associate Attorneys who are open to exploring what their next career move could look like.

I work primarily with Am Law 50, 100, and 200 firms , but I also frequently partner with small and midsize firms, respected regional firms, and sophisticated boutiques across multiple markets.

Not currently practicing at an Am Law firm? I'd still love to hear from you! I welcome associates from firms of all sizes and value relevant experience, skills, and career goals.

Areas of Experience
  • Complex commercial and business litigation

  • Contract disputes and business torts

  • State and federal court litigation

  • Discovery, depositions, motions, and trial preparation

What Could Your Next Move Offer?

Better compensation and bonus potential

Lower billable requirements and improved work-life balance

More sophisticated matters and direct client exposure

Stronger mentorship and advancement opportunities

A firm culture that better aligns with your goals

You don't have to be actively searching to have a conversation about your career.

This is an opportunistic search, not an advertisement for one specific opening. However, I work with numerous law firms across multiple markets and may already have active opportunities that align with your experience and career goals.

Whether there's an immediate fit or we stay connected for the right opportunity down the road, I'd welcome the chance to learn more about your background, compensation expectations, and what matters most to you in your next move.

All conversations are confidential. Your resume and identifying information will never be shared with a firm without your permission.
