Senior Commercial Litigation Attorney

A well-established, mid-Atlantic law firm is seeking a senior commercial litigation attorney at the Counsel or Junior Partner level to join its Northern Virginia or Maryland offices. This is a confidential search conducted on behalf of the firm.

This is a lead-litigator role designed for an experienced attorney seeking meaningful responsibility and autonomy. The successful candidate will take over and run commercial litigation matters delegated by senior partners, serve as day-to-day lead counsel on cases, and supervise junior attorneys as needed. Senior partners remain available for high-level strategy, but this role requires someone comfortable fully owning files from inception through resolution.

Key Responsibilities

  • Independently manage commercial litigation matters from inception through resolution
  • Serve as day-to-day lead counsel, taking direction from senior partners on high-level strategy only
  • Take and defend depositions, argue motions, and handle trial work on a regular basis
  • Supervise and mentor junior attorneys as needed

Requirements

  • Approximately 10–20+ years of commercial litigation experience
  • Demonstrated ability to run cases independently with substantial first-chair experience
  • Active Virginia bar admission required; DC and/or Maryland admission a plus
  • A small portable book of business (approximately $200K+)

What the Firm Offers

  • A national platform with strong cross-selling opportunities across multiple practice areas and offices
  • A structured business development program including training, coaching, and accountability
  • Competitive compensation aligned with experience, productivity, and growth
  • A leadership role with meaningful responsibility and autonomy within a supportive environment

How to Apply

Qualified candidates are encouraged to submit their resume and a brief description of their litigation experience and current book of business for confidential consideration. All inquiries will be handled with the utmost discretion.
