Construction Litigation Associate Attorney

I'm working with a well-respected Boston law firm that's looking for a mid-level associate to join its construction team. The group represents construction clients in every part of their business, from contract drafting and negotiation to claims, mediations, litigation, and appeals. It's a great chance to take on significant responsibility in a collaborative, sophisticated, team-oriented group.

What you'll do:

- Prepare and negotiate construction contracts

- Evaluate, manage, and monitor complex construction disputes and litigation

- Take and defend depositions, and draft and argue dispositive motions

- Prepare for arbitrations, mediations, and trials

- Develop litigation and resolution strategies, and manage risk on potential and existing claims

- Report to clients, manage local counsel and experts, and collaborate with multiple parties

What you'll bring:

- 3-5 years of litigation experience, including depositions, dispositive motions, and arbitration, mediation, and trial preparation

- E-discovery experience

- Construction contract and dispute experience (delay and disruption, payment, and breach of contract claims) is a plus

- Admission to the Massachusetts Bar

- Strong writing and oral advocacy skills and an excellent academic record

- Motivation to work independently and as part of a larger team

Strong compensation and good benefits.
