️ Mid-Level to Partner Litigation Attorney – Medical Malpractice / General Liability

Are you a seasoned litigator ready to take the leap to partner? Our client, a well-established, resource-rich law firm in Northern NJ, is urgently seeking a Medical Malpractice / General Liability Attorney to join their high-performing team. This is a rare chance for a senior associate to step directly into a partner role, with succession planning already in motion.

Why This Role Stands Out:

Unposted, high-priority opening due to a partner level need
Mentorship-rich environment led by a trial-tested partner who values growth and autonomy
Real opportunity to prove yourself and rise quickly
Robust infrastructure rivaling Big Law: marketing, finance, tech, and operations teams fully support your practice
Respect for work-life balance with flexible hybrid options and a culture that values personal time

What You’ll Do:

Lead and manage complex litigation matters, including trial, depositions and expert witness prep
Collaborate with a tight-knit team of associates and partners
Contribute to trial strategy and case development
Mentor junior attorneys and help shape the future of the practice

What We’re Looking For:

Minimum 5 years of litigation experience
Medical Malpractice experience preferred; General Liability required
Trial experience strongly preferred; deposition and expert deposition experience required
Ability to run cases independently and support junior team members
NJ Bar admission required
Competitive base salary starting at $130K–$140K for mid-levels; $160K+ for senior/partner-level candidates (compensation based on experience)
Generous year-end bonuses and merit-based increases
Comprehensive benefits including Cigna health plans, HSA/FSA, 401(k) with discretionary match, CLEs, dues, cell phone stipend, and even pet insurance
Parental leave, college tuition benefits, and more

Firm Culture & Growth:

Active Professional Development, DEI, and Wellness Committees
Associates encouraged to write, speak, and build their brand with support from a top-tier marketing team
Mentorship programs and business development coaching
Private offices and hoteling options available

Location & Flexibility:

Based in Bedminster, NJ
In-office presence preferred 4 days/week, but flexible for top talent

Ready to take the next step in your career? This is more than a job—it’s a launchpad to partnership. Apply now or reach out directly to learn more.
