We are working with a dynamic and rapidly growing boutique law firm, located in a desirable Hartford suburb, who seeks an attorney with at least four years of civil defense litigation experience. The ideal candidate will assist in defending clients in a wide range of civil defense litigation matters from complex commercial disputes to personal injury claims.

Their ideal candidate will contribute to day-to-day case management, which includes communicating directly with partners and clients, drafting pleadings, motions, and briefs, managing discovery, attending fact and expert depositions, court appearances, trial preparation and trials. Knowledge of state court practice and procedure is required, as is strong analytical, organizational, research and writing skills. The firm will consider candidates with transferable litigation skills from another civil/commercial litigation practice or candidates who work in a plaintiffs' practice with an interest in transitioning to a defense-based practice. Admission to the CT Bar, or the ability to become admitted upon hire, is required.

The firm offers competitive salary, bonus eligibility, a wide range of benefits, including a 401(k) plan, a collegial and collaborative environment, a hybrid work schedule, a great work environment, and other perks.

For consideration please provide your resume, law school transcript, and two writing samples (preferably not edited by others).
