Job Description

Wilson Elser is a leading defense litigation law firm with more than 1400 attorneys in 46 offices throughout the United States. Founded in 1978, we rank among the top 100 law firms identified by The American Lawyer and 36 in the National Law Journal's survey of the nation's largest law firms.

Our firm is committed to attracting and retaining professionals who value each other and the service we provide by embracing Teamwork, Collaboration, Client Service, and Innovation. If you are a motivated professional looking for a long-term fit where you can grow in a role, and will be valued and empowered, then we invite you to apply to our Staff Attorney position, in any of our offices.

The Position

This is not your average discovery role. We're looking for a sharp, investigative lawyer who enjoys working as part of a team and thrives on digging deep, spotting critical issues, and navigating complex discovery landscapes with precision. If you enjoy engaging directly and collaborating with in-house and outside counsel and crafting tailored discovery responses that align with both individual case nuances and broader national strategies, this dynamic position is for you.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct thorough investigations and proactively spot discovery issues unique to each case.
  • Collaborate closely with inside counsel and external law firms to address distinct discovery challenges and provide clear, actionable guidance.
  • Develop and craft strategic discovery responses tailored to individual cases while ensuring alignment with overarching national litigation strategies.
  • Operate in a fast-paced, dynamic legal environment where adaptability and innovative problem-solving are essential.
  • Continuously monitor and evaluate discovery processes to identify opportunities for improvement and risk mitigation.

Qualifications

  • Juris Doctor (JD) degree from an accredited law school.
  • Admission to practice law in relevant jurisdictions.
  • Proven experience in litigation discovery, investigations, or related legal roles.
  • Strong analytical and issue-spotting skills with attention to detail.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively with diverse legal teams.
  • Excellent writing skills.
  • Comfortable working in a dynamic, fast-moving environment.
  • Experience with AI large language model is a plus.
  • Personal injury litigation background preferred.

We are not currently accepting agency submissions for this position.

Why Should You Apply?

  • Flexibility: Hybrid work arrangements to support work-life blend
  • Benefits: Outstanding benefits package, including 401k match and generous PTO plan
  • Career Growth: Ample opportunities for professional development and advancement
  • Employee Perks: Access to corporate discount plans and other benefits
