Associate Attorney

Profile

Segal McCambridge, a national litigation firm, is seeking an Associate Attorney for its very active toxic tort (asbestos) / product liability practice group in our Boston office. This is an excellent opportunity for attorneys looking to hone their litigation skills and take responsibility for the day-to-day management of an assigned case load while still being afforded the benefit of working in a team environment and receiving training and mentorship from partners with deep experience in these practice areas. This is a hybrid position, with a flexible mixture of remote and intermittent in-office attendance.

We Seek Candidates With

• Current, active license to practice law in Massachusetts. Dual licensure with surrounding states (CT or RI) desirable;
• Minimum of 2 years experience as a practicing attorney in civil defense litigation, including experience in drafting pleadings, written discovery; motions and other related litigation documents; performing legal research; taking and defending depositions; reporting to clients and/or insurance carriers; and other facets of the litigation process;
• Prior toxic tort and/or product liability experience strongly preferred;
• Excellent legal research, writing and advocacy skills;
• Ability to multitask and manage multiple deadlines;
• Strong interpersonal and presentation skills;
• Proven ability to analyze complex legal issues and produce top quality work;
• A willingness to be proactive and take ownership of projects and assignments;
• Experience handling mediations/arbitrations desirable.

This position offers exponential opportunities for career advancement within a well-established, but growing organization. Our attorneys work on sophisticated and challenging matters in a collaborative team environment. Associates take ownership of case management (along with a supervising partner) and have the ability to handle all aspects of a file from inception through resolution/trial.
If you are looking to be challenged and handle files independently while having the ability to work collaboratively with an experienced litigation team, please submit your resume.
