This is an ongoing partner-level search, handled confidentially. The mandate is reviewed on a rolling basis with the client, and the detail below reflects the current brief.

We are working with a leading US law firm that is making East Coast commercial litigation a strategic priority. The firm is seeking an experienced, ambitious partner to join its New York office as part of a broader build-out of the practice group.

This is an immediate equity partnership opportunity with a single-tier partnership structure. The firm emphasizes entrepreneurial growth and provides robust support for lateral partners to develop their books from day one—including integration teams, cross-selling opportunities, and multiple levels of credit.

The ideal candidate will have a portable commercial litigation practice and a track record of business development, with the drive to continue growing through the firm's platform. The firm is open to considering a group move as well as a single-partner hire.

Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
Established commercial litigation practice with demonstrated client relationships
Entrepreneurial mindset and commitment to long-term practice development
Strong credentials and reputation in the market
Ability to collaborate and cross-sell within a team-oriented environment

If the brief does not read like an exact match, a conversation is still worth having — partner briefs move with the candidate.
