Mid-Level Financial Services Litigation Associate
Position: Litigation Associate – Financial Services (Mid-Level)
Location: St. Louis, MO (Hybrid: 3 days in office / 2 days remote)
Compensation: $165,000 – $200,000 (Base salary, commensurate with experience) + Bonus & Benefits
Position Overview
A highly respected, full-service law firm with a 100+ year legacy of excellence is seeking a mid-level Litigation Associate to join its thriving Financial Services Litigation Practice Group in St. Louis.
This is a premier opportunity for an ambitious attorney looking to handle sophisticated commercial litigation work while benefiting from structured, one-on-one professional development plans, individualized coaching, and a clear path for career growth.
The Day-to-Day
Take ownership of cases from inception through discovery and trial preparation.
Actively attend and represent clients at depositions, settlement conferences, and hearings.
Draft complex motions, discovery responses, pleadings, and high-level client reports.
Collaborate on trial strategy, conduct key records reviews, and handle client and witness preparation.
The Ideal Candidate
3 to 5 years of litigation-based practice.
Must possess an active Missouri law license (or be eligible for immediate admission).
Proven hands-on experience taking and defending depositions.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making capabilities are required.
Experience advising on financial services regulatory and compliance matters, and a focus on FINRA arbitration, is highly advantageous.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
The firm actively avoids the "sink or swim" model, offering formalized, individual training and executive coaching to help you reach your career goals.
Enjoy a structured hybrid schedule offering 2 remote days and 3 in-office days per week following onboarding.
A historically stable, inclusive firm that marries sophisticated, high-stakes work with a supportive environment.
