We're not your typical law firm. While others chase billable hours, we solve impossible problems. While they practice law, we practice warfare-intellectual warfare that dismantles opponents and delivers victories our clients didn't think were possible. What We Do (And Why It Matters) High-Stakes Disputes That Matter: When Fortune 500 companies, governments, and ultra-high-net-worth individuals face their most critical legal battles, they call us. Criminal defense, regulatory enforcement, internal investigations, complex commercial litigation, class actions, judgment enforcement, asset recovery-if it's sophisticated and the stakes are astronomical, we're there. Global Reach, Local Impact: Our cross-border teams operate seamlessly across continents. When Latin America explodes with opportunity, when Middle Eastern markets shift overnight, when China presents new challenges-we're already there, already ahead, already winning. Who We Want (No Mediocrity Allowed) The Non-Negotiables: JD from ABA-approved law school (2019-2022 graduation) Exceptional writing, drafting, and editing capabilities Intellectual aggressiveness balanced with strategic thinking Global mindset and cultural adaptability The Differentiators: Judicial clerkships and trial experience (serious advantage) Proven ability to think beyond conventional legal solutions Comfort with ambiguity and complex, evolving situations Genuine passion for solving business problems through legal innovation Why This Opportunity is Different Real Meritocracy: Our bonus system rewards impact, not just hours.

Career Trajectory: Our alumni lead major corporations, sit on federal benches, and run government agencies. This isn't just a job-it's a launching pad. The Culture (Not for Everyone) We admit it: our approach isn't traditional. We demand intellectual rigor, creative problem-solving, and the ability to collaborate across time zones and cultures. We expect you to think one step ahead, to address clients' entire problems, not just their legal issues. What We Offer: Non-hierarchical environment where ideas matter more than seniority Unlimited support and resources to achieve excellence Diverse, inclusive teams that generate breakthrough solutions The chance to work on cases that reshape industries and jurisdictions What We Expect: Intellectual curiosity that drives constant learning Ability to balance civility with aggressive advocacy Comfort with high-pressure, high-visibility situations Commitment to pushing boundaries and setting new standards The Work (Prepare to Be Challenged) Every case is unique. Every client presents novel challenges. You'll handle disputes involving cutting-edge technology, complex financial instruments, international regulatory frameworks, and business models that didn't exist five years ago. You'll work with teams that include former prosecutors, ex-government officials, industry specialists, and cultural experts. You'll argue in courts across multiple jurisdictions, negotiate with regulators in different countries, and develop strategies that account for political, economic, and legal variables most lawyers never consider. Application Process (Straightforward, No Games) We read every application carefully. We make decisions based on merit, potential, and fit. Come prepared with a clear understanding of our work, our values, and your career objectives. Required Materials: Cover letter explaining why this role aligns with your goals Resume highlighting relevant experience Law school transcript Writing sample demonstrating analytical capability Selection Philosophy: This is reciprocal.

This role offers immediate integration into a sophisticated deal practice with meaningful exposure to healthcare and defense contracting transactions. If you're looking for a position where you can take ownership, work closely with experienced partners, and maintain a healthy work/life balance (1600-1800 billable hours), this is an exceptional opportunity.

Key Responsibilities Lead and support sell-side M&A transactions, frequently opposite private equity buyers or PE-backed acquirers. Advise clients across industries, with strong exposure to healthcare and defense contracting transactions. Provide occasional support for hospital and healthcare regulatory matters when needed.

What Makes This Role Unique Handle high-profile and industry-specific transactions that build rare marketable expertise. Opportunity to grow in two niche, in-demand sectors: healthcare and defense. Fast-paced environment with significant client interaction and autonomy. True work/life balance: 1600-1800 billable hours, far below typical BigLaw demands. Long-term visibility and a real pathway to building a standout transactional practice. Ideal Candidate Profile 6+ years of corporate transactional experience (sell-side M&A strongly preferred). Background or strong interest in healthcare transactions or healthcare regulatory work. Business-oriented, solution-focused mindset. Excellent drafting, analytical, and negotiation skills. Ability to work both independently and collaboratively. NY or FL bar strongly preferred (or ability to obtain admission). Compensation & Benefits Base Salary: Starting at $200K+ Bonus: Performance-based, typically 10-20% Benefits: Full health benefits coverage Lifestyle: Predictable hours, 1600-1800 billables, and a supportive, growth-oriented culture Direct access to high-impact transactions and ongoing professional development.
