Job Description

** Full end of year bonus + Signing bonus **

You have the science degree. You have the patent litigation experience.

So why are you still stuck on the sidelines?

You should be taking depositions, arguing in court, and working with key experts—not just summarizing their reports. You’re ready to be a trial lawyer, not just a litigation associate.

We are building a trial team for a series of high-stakes biologics and pharmaceutical patent disputes. This isn't a backfill position; it's a strategic expansion for a Tier 1 practice that consistently tries and wins the biggest cases in the life sciences sector.

What You'll Actually Do:

• Get substantive, stand-up courtroom and deposition experience from day one.
• Work directly with trial partners who are leaders in the field, not through layers of senior associates.
• Shape case strategy on disputes involving blockbuster drugs and cutting-edge gene therapies.

What You Bring:

• 2-7 years of patent litigation experience.
• A technical degree in Biology, Chemistry, Pharmacology, or a related discipline is required.
• A desire to be in the courtroom and the drive to win.
• Bar admission in good standing.

What You Get:

• Top-of-Market Pay: Cravath scale base salary
• No Bonus Left Behind: A guaranteed, full year-end bonus this year (no pro-ration) plus a significant signing bonus for joining the team ASAP.
• Real Professional Development: A bespoke training program designed to build first-chair trial lawyers, not just support staff.
• Premier Benefits: Top-tier health, wellness, and family leave benefits that exceed the industry standard.

The Catch:

We are selectively and confidentially recruiting for 2-3 key associates for this specific trial team. The interview process will be fast, and decisions will be made quickly.

This is your chance to leapfrog your peers.
