Attorney - Medical Malpractice

$175k

We Are Legal Revolution

Job Description

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

Location/Schedule: Manhattan, NY (Hybrid)

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

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

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.

Why You Should Join:

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

What You’ll Actually Do:

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

Requirements:

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

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.
