Associate Attorney - Medical Malpractice Defense

$100k - $130k

Aaronson Rappaport Feinstein & Deutsch, LLP

Job Description

New York City | Hybrid Eligible

\n

Full-Time | 2–6 Years’ Experience Preferred but not Required

\n

\n

We are a highly respected medical malpractice and insurance defense firm representing New York’s top hospital systems and healthcare providers. Our team handles complex, high-stakes litigation in both state and federal court, often involving catastrophic injury and wrongful death claims.

\n

\n

Despite the serious work we do, we pride ourselves on maintaining a congenial, family-style culture . Our attorneys enjoy camaraderie, mentorship, and work-life balance — rare in litigation, and even rarer in New York practice.

\n

\n

\n

What We Offer

\n

• Immediate litigation experience : Depositions, motion practice, and court appearances from day one

\n

• Hands-on mentorship by seasoned attorneys

\n

• A warm, collaborative environment where people look out for each other

\n

• Hybrid flexibility — remote work options available

\n

• Clear opportunities for professional growth and leadership

\n

• Annual bonuses tied to performance and firm success

\n

• Reasonable expectations — no face-time culture, no “always-on” email policy

\n

\n

\n

What You Bring

\n

• 2–6 years of litigation experience (medical malpractice, general liability, products liability, or insurance defense a plus)

\n

• Strong writing and analytical skills

\n

• A practical, down-to-earth, roll-up-the-sleeves attitude

\n

• Eagerness to grow, contribute, and make your mark

\n

• Admission to practice in New York

\n

\n

\n

Why This Role?

\n

This isn’t just another insurance defense job. You’ll work on meaningful cases that shape the healthcare landscape in New York with premier institutions, develop real trial skills, and enjoy the process with a team that respects your life outside the office.

\n

\n

\n

Compensation Range: $100,000.00 - $130,000.00 per year.

\n

\n

\n

If you are interested in joining the team, please send your résumé and cover letter to our managing partner, Jonathan Meister, at View email address on ziprecruiter.com. We look forward to meeting you!

\n

\n
