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.
