Ever wanted to join a law firm where your legal expertise isn’t constrained by bureaucracy?

Our New York midtown client is a boutique, bespoke business-law firm that provides outside general counsel services to companies that need seasoned legal guidance without maintaining an in‑house legal department. The firm emphasizes practical, business‑savvy legal solutions, offering clients a collaborative partnership aimed at helping them strategize, grow, and resolve complex business issues.

Salary range:

  • Awaiting Admission - $80k
  • Admitted - $90K - $130K

Services range from:

Corporate and corporate finance matters

Employment law and employee benefits

Intellectual property, trademarks, and trade secrets

Litigation (used only when necessary)

Healthcare law and regulatory compliance

Are you the trusted advisor, confidant, and friend of your client? Are you ready to make your mark on an organization and join a partnership track? The firm is looking for a passionate, energetic junior associate to help us continue to revolutionize the legal industry. If you're someone who thrives in fast-paced, client-focused environments and is eager to tackle diverse legal challenges, this is your chance to join a team that’s making a real difference. If you want to hear from your clients what we hear from ours – that they love us and hiring us was their single best business decision – this firm is for you.

What We’re Looking For:

Passion & Drive: You love the law and are excited to grow with us as we continue to expand. You understand how to show clients that you love them.

Client-Centered: You communicate with clients clearly and effectively—no jargon, just solutions. You are thoughtful in your approach to helping them achieve their goals.

Adaptable & Self-Motivated: You thrive in a dynamic environment, balancing multiple priorities and taking ownership of your work.

Collaborative Spirit: You work well with a team, sharing knowledge and working together to get the best results.

Creative Problem Solver: You're ready to expand your skills into new practice areas and think outside the box.

What We Offer:

Growth & Opportunity: Expand your practice across multiple areas, from employment to IP to corporate law, and collaborate with a team that’s redefining client service.

Competitive Compensation: If you bring a book of business or develop one here, you will enjoy a competitive base salary and 15% revenue share on the clients you generate—forever (for as long as they are a client).

Culture: A tight-knit team that celebrates innovation and collaboration. You won’t just be another attorney—you’ll be a key player in shaping our future.

What Makes Us Different that Sets You Up for Greater Success:

Practical and Strategic: We are not just attorneys. We are individuals with an entrepreneurial spirit who understand business, and we limit our advice to what is practical and achievable for clients.

Business Acumen: The billable hour is a mirage. We offer flat-fee and retainer-based arrangements, allowing us to be unbound by the clock. In certain instances, we offer flat-fee arrangements and retainer-based billing in litigation.

Business Development: We value the special skills required to excel at business development, and we provide unparalleled support to help you achieve our business development goals.

Preferred Attributes

Entrepreneurial mindset with comfort operating in a small, resource-efficient environment.

Ability to work as a team- We really mean that.

You could be someone who has passed the bar and is awaiting admission

Strong business acumen and ability to collaborate with non‑legal leadership.

Practical, solution-oriented approach rather than academic legalism.

Good communication skills

Step into a modern legal practice where innovation replaces red tape, and your legal judgment—not the billable hour—defines your value
