Family Law Attorney (3–10 Years) – Divorce & Custody Matters | New York, NY | NY Bar Required

________________________________________

Keywords:- Family Law Attorney, Divorce Attorney, Child Custody Attorney, Adoption Attorney, General Family Law Attorney, Family lawyer, New York legal jobs, Attorney jobs NYC, NY Bar required, Law firm family law associate, Partner-track position

A respected multi-office law firm is seeking a Family Law Attorney in New York, NY to handle divorce, custody, support, and equitable distribution matters. This is a strong opportunity for a Family Law Attorney seeking meaningful client contact, sophisticated matters, and long-term growth in New York legal jobs.

This Maryland based firm was established nearly three decades ago. Over their history, this firm has opened offices across the Northeastern region of the United States, running nearly 15 offices in New York, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey and more. More than 125 attorneys are employed by this firm, practicing areas such as Cannabis Law, Legal Ethics, Nonprofit Entities, Landlord Representation, Mass Toxic Torts and many, many more.

________________________________________

A well-established regional law firm with a broad Northeastern footprint is seeking an experienced Family Law Attorney to join its New York office. This opportunity is ideal for a candidate with 3–10 years of experience who is confident managing matters independently while also contributing to a collaborative team environment.

This role offers the chance to advise both middle-income and high-net-worth clients on sensitive and complex domestic relations matters. The position stands out for its steady workflow, strong platform, and potential as a partner-track position for the right attorney. This opportunity is actively interviewing, and positions at this level do not open often.

________________________________________

Key Responsibilities

• Handle a range of family law matters, including divorce, child custody, child support, spousal support, and equitable distribution

• Represent middle-income and high-net-worth clients in contested and non-contested proceedings

• Draft pleadings, motions, settlement agreements, memoranda, and court submissions

• Provide strategic client counseling on case developments, risk assessment, and resolution options

• Appear in court and deliver effective courtroom advocacy when needed

• Manage matters with a high degree of independence while working closely with colleagues in a team-oriented setting

• Support clients through emotionally sensitive disputes with professionalism and sound judgment

________________________________________

Qualifications

• 3–10 years of family law experience required

• Admission to the New York Bar required

• New Jersey Bar admission preferred

• Demonstrated experience with divorce, custody, support, and equitable distribution matters

• Strong drafting, legal writing, and communication skills

• Confident courtroom presence and advocacy ability

• Ability to manage client matters independently from intake through resolution

• Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school

________________________________________

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This opportunity is with a long-standing, growth-oriented law firm that has built a strong presence across multiple offices in the Northeast. Attorneys benefit from an established platform, diverse practice exposure, and a collaborative environment that supports both professional development and high-quality client service.

For a Family Law Attorney, this role offers the chance to build a strong practice in one of the most active legal markets in the country. Candidates seeking New York legal jobs with strong matter ownership, client-facing responsibility, and advancement potential will find this role especially compelling. The firm values practical judgment, responsive service, and attorneys who can combine empathy with effective advocacy.

This is an excellent opening for a General Family Law Attorney looking to deepen experience in sophisticated domestic relations work. It is also attractive for attorneys seeking a partner-track position with consistent case responsibility and the ability to grow within a respected law firm platform. By year-end, the successful attorney could be leading key client relationships and handling substantial family law matters with increased autonomy.

While other legal recruiters only represent a narrow band of candidates from top law firms and top law schools, our research, firm contacts, and market insight allow us to place hundreds of candidates each year who do not fit this mold. It is rare that we do not get candidates we represent interviews and offers. No one in the world is better at legal recruiting and placement than BCG Attorney Search.

BCG Attorney Search will confidentially review your application and will not forward your materials to the firm without first discussing the opportunity with you.

Law Clerk – Where Your Writing Gets Noticed

We're not going to tell you we're "dynamic" or that we're looking for a "rockstar." Here's the reality: we're a tight-knit firm of 3 attorneys (plus one stellar paralegal) who've built something different. Our clients range from scrappy $5M+ companies to billion-dollar entities, and they all have real problems that need smart solutions.

The Role: You'll do real legal work from day one. We do not have busywork that disappears into a void. Research that informs strategy. Drafting that goes into real filings. You'll see the inside of mediation, hearings, depositions, negotiations, and client meetings. If you think clerking means organizing binders, this isn't your place.

You Should Apply If:

• You're a current law student (1L or 2L)
• You made law review or have published work. We need proof you can write
• You can figure things out without someone holding your hand
• You want feedback and coaching (we give it freely and directly)
• You'd rather spend your summers doing real work than sitting through onboarding slideshows

The Details:

• Competitive hourly pay
• Remote works for the right candidate. South Florida proximity is a plus, but we care more about what you produce than where you produce it
• Flexible schedule that works around your classes or exam prep
• You'll work alongside attorneys who will push your writing and sharpen your thinking
• We believe weekends are for living, not billing

If you think legal writing is an art form and you want to learn how to practice law instead of observing it from a distance, then let's talk. Send your cover letter (make it interesting), resume, and a writing sample that shows us why words matter to you.

No recruiters. Seriously.

Senior Litigation Associate — Commercial, Regulatory & Public Law

San Francisco, California

Overview

We are seeking a senior litigation associate to join our San Francisco office. Our practice combines sophisticated commercial litigation, regulatory enforcement matters, and public law challenges across a diverse nationwide client base. This role is well suited for an attorney trained in a leading law firm or government practice who is seeking greater responsibility, direct client engagement, and meaningful participation in complex, high-impact disputes, with close collaboration and mentorship from experienced partners. Associates in our San Francisco office work closely with partners on significant matters from inception through resolution and are expected to assume substantial responsibility as their experience develops.

The Practice

Our litigation practice spans commercial disputes, regulatory enforcement, and public law matters affecting businesses and organizations across industries. The associate will support — and, as appropriate, take lead responsibility in — matters that include:

• Partnership, shareholder, and governance disputes
• Regulatory investigations and enforcement actions at the state and federal level
• Administrative proceedings and writ petitions challenging agency action
• Appellate matters and pre-litigation strategic counseling

Matters frequently involve expedited proceedings, requests for injunctive relief, parallel regulatory exposure, and substantial financial or operational stakes for clients. Associates work on lean teams and play visible roles in significant matters.

Responsibilities

• Manage cases and discrete litigation components with increasing independence
• Draft pleadings, dispositive motions, and substantive briefs
• Conduct and oversee written discovery and motion practice
• Participate in depositions, hearings, mediations, and client strategy sessions
• Work closely with partners on litigation strategy and case development
• Develop legal analysis across evolving statutory and regulatory frameworks
• Communicate directly with clients, opposing counsel, and regulators
• Assume ownership of key workstreams and contribute to efficient case management

Associates will have opportunities for meaningful stand-up experience and direct client interaction commensurate with experience.

Qualifications

• 6+ years of litigation experience in state and/or federal court
• Training at a leading law firm, litigation boutique, or government practice preferred
• Experience drafting dispositive motions and managing discovery
• Strong research, writing, and analytical skills
• Sound professional judgment, strong organizational skills, and the ability to manage multiple workstreams effectively
• Interest in both commercial litigation and regulatory/public law matters, including attorneys seeking to broaden their practice into these areas
• Active membership in the California Bar, or ability to obtain admission promptly
• Judicial clerkship or government experience is a plus

What We Offer

• Sophisticated litigation across commercial, regulatory, and public law domains
• Early and meaningful responsibility in significant matters
• Direct client engagement and strategic involvement
• Close collaboration with experienced partners and lean staffing on cases
• A collegial, intellectually rigorous environment focused on high-quality work
• Competitive compensation commensurate with experience
