About Us

Our nationwide practice affords us the opportunity to make a difference on a broad scale, and we are looking for colleagues who share our passion.

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Asbestos Attorney to join our growing and dedicated team. While responding to discovery demands, meeting with clients, and defending depositions will be an important aspect of this position, the ideal candidate will have extensive experience conducting corporate discovery, reviewing document productions, dealing with experts, and taking corporate and expert depositions relating to asbestos and talc litigation. This role will be based in our Midtown Manhattan office.

You Will:

• Oversee all aspects of asbestos-related cases, from initial client consultations to trial, ensuring the highest level of legal representation.
• Conduct thorough research on asbestos-related cases, including the history of talc sourcing and mines, scientific literature, and various sources of discovery.
• Collaborate with experts in fields such as occupational health, toxicology, and geology, and others to analyze and present compelling evidence.
• Remain updated on the latest developments in asbestos-related law, scientific research, and industry trends to provide the best legal counsel possible.
• Meet with clients to gather information about their asbestos/talc exposure history in order to maximize pursuit of liable parties.

You Have:

• Licensed to practice in the State of New York
• 5+ years of experience practicing asbestos litigation.
• Comprehensive knowledge of asbestos-related diseases, talc sourcing, mining operations, and the relevant scientific and legal aspects.
• Proven experience finding alternative sources of liability, as well as working closely with experts to develop a case and prepare it for trial.

Our Benefits:

• Comprehensive Medical, Dental and Vision Insurance Plans
• Paid Time Off
• Commuter Transit Program
• Retirement Plan

Salary Range: $180,000-$200,000 per year

The quoted salary range represents our good faith estimate as to what our ideal candidates are likely to expect, and we tailor our offers within the range based on the selected candidate's experience, industry knowledge, location, technical and communication skills, and other factors that may prove relevant during the interview process. It is not a guaranteed minimum/maximum.

A nationally recognized, midsize litigation firm is seeking a Team Lead Attorney for its Midtown Manhattan office. This is a fully in-office leadership role within a firm that is considered a leader in its space, with a founding partner who is a prominent national voice on the subject matter the firm exclusively handles.

This is not a traditional personal injury role, but it is PI-adjacent litigation involving high-impact, high-stakes civil matters. The work sits at the intersection of complex civil litigation and meaningful advocacy — truly the definition of doing well by doing good.

About the Role

The Team Lead Attorney will:

• Oversee and manage a docket of complex civil litigation matters
• Supervise and mentor associates and litigation staff
• Drive case strategy from intake through resolution or trial
• Handle depositions, motion practice, and court appearances
• Work closely with firm leadership on case development and growth of the NYC office
• Ensure strong organizational systems, deadline management, and case progression

This is a hands-on leadership role. The ideal candidate is both a strong litigator and a steady team builder.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of civil litigation experience required
• Strong preference for plaintiff-side experience
• Additional strong preference for personal injury experience
• Significant deposition and motion practice experience
• Trial experience is a plus
• Experience managing or mentoring junior attorneys
• Exceptional organizational skills and ability to manage a high-volume docket
• Comfort working in a fully in-office, collaborative environment

Again, while the practice area is adjacent to personal injury, this is not a traditional auto/trucking/products PI position. The litigation is more specialized and mission-driven in nature.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary up to $300,000+
• Annual performance bonuses typically ranging from $20,000–$50,000 (and can exceed that based on performance)
• 100% employer-paid healthcare coverage
• 401(k) with 5% match
• Fully in-office position in Midtown Manhattan

Why This Role

• Midsize national firm with strong infrastructure
• Leadership opportunity in a growing NYC office
• Work that is mission-driven and impactful
• Founding partner widely recognized as a leading national voice in the field
• Opportunity to build, mentor, and shape a team

This is an ideal opportunity for a seasoned civil litigator who wants meaningful work, leadership responsibility, and top-tier compensation within a firm that is both high-performing and purpose-driven.

Prominent national firm seeks a Litigation Associate Attorney for their expanding federal Workers' Compensation Defense practice. You will assist with litigating complex cases under the Defense Base Act (DBA). Prior Workers' Compensation or DBA experience is NOT required.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a collaborative team that offers growth and a flexible work culture with fully remote/hybrid options. This role can be based in any of their NY Metro offices: NYC, Long Island or Westchester. Fully remote option is available.

The Center for Family Representation Inc. (CFR) is an award-winning, innovative law and policy organization that serves primarily Black and Brown families and youth in Manhattan, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island with an interdisciplinary legal defense model that serves more than 2400 clients every year. CFR was originally founded in 2002 to dramatically change the trajectory of indigent parents being prosecuted by the City's Administration for Children's Services (ACS). Our goal is to defend and protect our clients' rights, reduce the harm of family separation and prevent or minimize the time any child spends in the foster system.

CFR provides interdisciplinary family defense with a model that was unique at our founding and that is now being replicated nationally: we assign every client an attorney and a social work staff member, and teams have the support of parent advocates, who are parents with direct personal experience of having been investigated and prosecuted by ACS. CFR was the first agency in the country to integrate parents with lived experience into legal teams and now has 11 parent advocates working in all four of our family defense locations. CFR's Early Defense Practice represents parents during an ACS investigation (to avoid court involvement where possible). Our SCR Practice assists parents in clearing their names from state maltreatment records.

As an agency committed to securing justice for families, we built the Youth Defense Practice (YDP) to defend youth at risk of family separation through incarceration. YDP uses the same interdisciplinary model to represent youth being prosecuted in Manhattan, the Bronx and Queens in Juvenile Delinquency and Persons In Need of Supervision (PINS) proceedings in Family Court. CFR's Home for Good program provides legal and social work services to CFR clients in immigration, civil legal services and criminal defense matters, to afford clients an efficient and well-coordinated one-stop solution to a range of issues that threaten family stability.

Recognized as experts in our fields, we annually train over 500 practitioners in the city, state and around the country on strategies to promote family preservation and interdisciplinary representation, and we provide community based "Know Your Rights" presentations to parents, youth and service providers. We advocate at the city, state and national level for policies that reduce the harm of family separation, and promote parent engagement and justice for youth and families.

CFR has an immediate opening for a Staff Attorney in its Youth Defense Practice (YDP) in Manhattan.

Under the supervision and guidance of CFR's Youth Defense Supervisors, the Staff Attorney's core responsibilities will be to represent clients charged on juvenile delinquency (JD) matters and PINS petitions in Family Court .

The candidate will receive training on youth and family defense.

The candidate will work collaboratively with legal teams, composed of attorneys, social work staff, investigators, and paralegals (clients' legal teams may also involve staff from CFR's immigration or housing/public benefits units).

The position will be based out of the Manhattan family court.

The candidate should also expect to maintain new and evolving youth defense data in Case Management System and client legal notes; keep files up to date; keep additional data related to deliverables for private funders supporting the Youth Defense Practice, and/or to meet with prospective and current funders; and help to inform and grow CFR's Youth Defense Practice. This person may also participate in community based outreach and presentations for families whose youth are impacted by or are at risk of juvenile justice involvement.

The ideal candidate will enjoy the opportunity to wear multiple hats, learn a lot and enjoy working with teams.

Salary information:

$90,800/year for 3 years experience- $120,100/year for 15 years experience

Eligibility and Qualifications:

• Candidates for this position should be admitted to practice in New York State and ideally have at least 3 years of relevant legal experience (but not required).
