Legal extern job in New York, NY
A leading New York transactional antitrust team is hiring mid level associates as deal volume and complexity continue to surge.
This role sits directly inside one of the most active and sophisticated M & A platforms in the market. Associates advise on marquee domestic and cross border transactions for major corporates and top tier private equity sponsors.

This is a platform built for lawyers who want to grow. The firm invests heavily in its people, its practices, and its long term strategy. Compensation and benefits are at the very top of the New York market.
The role is aimed at:
