*About Turco Legal*
Turco Legal is one of the largest boutique family law firms in Massachusetts, now opening our first New Hampshire office in Manchester. While we have attorneys on our team licensed in New Hampshire and have handled family law matters in the state for years, this office will be a home base for our NH team.
The firm, as a whole, is formidable. Our partners and senior attorneys handle a wide range of sophisticated matters, from cases with complex financials and child custody issues to family law appeals, Hague Convention cases in federal court, and more. Our associate attorneys are equally as busy, and are the engine that powers our robust access to justice low bono program, Justice for All, in which we lower our attorney rates to as low as $75 an hour.
All in all, we're a team of highly experienced divorce and family law attorneys and support staff. We have 20 attorneys, most of whom have 15-35 years of experience, with each member having individual expertise and unique litigation experiences. We have certified financial litigators, guardian ad litems, an ARC counsel, a collaboratively trained attorney, and mediators among the team. Partners and senior attorneys may delegate work to associate attorneys at their discretion.
Our paralegal team is highly capable and experienced and members support each other as needed given the workload. Paralegals typically support 2-4 attorneys, but with a team approach, we can flex to the needs of the business. Every member of our team is available to provide perspective and insight on case issues as they arise. They'll also call you on you periodically for your insights.
While we are empowered to excel individually at this firm, we work as a team to deliver excellent service to our clients. The subject matter can be taxing at times and so being part of a team that cares really makes a difference in the quality of our work life. It's important to us that we all really like each other and generally feel this is a great place to work.
Turco Legal's also committed to being a leader in the legal community. While no member of our team is expected to take on leadership roles, the firm will support you if you do. The firm's founder and managing partner, Damian Turco, previously served as President of the Massachusetts Bar Association and the New England Bar Association, and the firm routinely supports the legal community through sponsorships and giving programs. Notably, the firm donates 10% of profits to Lawyers for Civil Rights - significant commitment with real impact in upholding the rule of law and protecting our civil rights.
Interested candidates should submit a resume via Indeed and may message through the site with any questions.

Patent Litigation Life Science Associate Attorney
Lateral Link
Attorney job in New York, NY
** Full end of year bonus + Signing bonus **
You have the science degree. You have the patent litigation experience.
So why are you still stuck on the sidelines?
You should be taking depositions, arguing in court, and working with key experts-not just summarizing their reports. You're ready to be a trial lawyer, not just a litigation associate.
We are building a trial team for a series of high-stakes biologics and pharmaceutical patent disputes. This isn't a backfill position; it's a strategic expansion for a Tier 1 practice that consistently tries and wins the biggest cases in the life sciences sector.
What You'll Actually Do:
Get substantive, stand-up courtroom and deposition experience from day one.
Work directly with trial partners who are leaders in the field, not through layers of senior associates.
Shape case strategy on disputes involving blockbuster drugs and cutting-edge gene therapies.
What You Bring:
2-7 years of patent litigation experience.
A technical degree in Biology, Chemistry, Pharmacology, or a related discipline is required.
A desire to be in the courtroom and the drive to win.
Bar admission in good standing.
What You Get:
Top-of-Market Pay: Cravath scale base salary
No Bonus Left Behind: A guaranteed, full year-end bonus this year (no pro-ration) plus a significant signing bonus for joining the team ASAP.
Real Professional Development: A bespoke training program designed to build first-chair trial lawyers, not just support staff.
Premier Benefits: Top-tier health, wellness, and family leave benefits that exceed the industry standard.
The Catch:
We are selectively and confidentially recruiting for 2-3 key associates for this specific trial team. The interview process will be fast, and decisions will be made quickly.
This is your chance to leapfrog your peers.
