Job Details
-
Our firm is seeking a senior Construction Attorney for our New York office to counsel architects, engineers, and other design professionals. This is a transactional and advisory role — not a litigation seat — for an experienced lawyer who wants to own client relationships with full firm support behind them.
What You'll Do:
-
Represent architects, engineers, and design professionals across the lifecycle of construction projects
-
Draft, negotiate, and advise on design and construction contracts, including AIA and custom agreements
-
Counsel clients on risk management, licensing, project structuring, and day-to-day legal questions
-
Serve as a trusted, ongoing advisor rather than a matter-by-matter resource
What You Bring:
-
10+ years of relevant experience, with a strong transactional focus in construction and design-professional work
-
Admission to the New York bar and good standing
-
A portable book of business is a significant plus and will be reflected in compensation
A bit about us:
-
We are a well-established, full-service firm with a multi-office presence and a broad, collaborative practice spanning more than 30 areas of law. We serve as trusted counsel to businesses, families, and individuals across a wide range of industries, pairing the depth and resources of a larger firm with the responsiveness and entrepreneurial mindset of a boutique.
Why join us?
-
We're built for attorneys who want to grow a practice, not just bill hours. Our dedicated onboarding and integration team — spanning marketing, business development, IT, risk management, and client-matter support — is designed to make a lateral move as seamless as possible for you and your clients. Collaborative culture, genuine cross-practice referrals, and a firm that invests in your book are the norm here.
