Medical Malpractice Defense Litigation Senior Associate
Location: Concord, New Hampshire
Employment Type: Full-Time, Permanent
Experience: 3–5+ Years
We are seeking an experienced Medical Malpractice Defense Litigation Senior Associate to join our Concord, New Hampshire office.
The ideal candidate will have 3–5+ years of experience specifically defending medical malpractice cases. Candidates must have defense-side medical malpractice litigation experience; plaintiff-side medical malpractice experience alone will not meet the requirements.
Responsibilities:
• Defend medical malpractice cases from inception through resolution.
• Take full responsibility for managing litigation files and caseloads.
• Handle all aspects of medical malpractice defense litigation, including discovery, depositions, motions, negotiations, and trial preparation.
• Manage cases independently while working with experienced attorneys and firm resources.
• Represent healthcare professionals, hospitals, and other healthcare-related clients.
• Develop strong client relationships and provide high-quality legal representation.
• Trial experience is strongly preferred.
Qualifications:
• 3–5+ years of legal experience.
• Significant experience defending medical malpractice cases from start to finish.
• Prior medical malpractice defense experience is required; plaintiff-side attorneys without defense experience will not be considered.
• Strong litigation, legal writing, research, negotiation, and case-management skills.
• Trial experience preferred.
• New Hampshire bar admission or eligibility to practice in New Hampshire.
Office & Remote Flexibility:
The position will initially require working from the Concord office at least 4 days per week. After establishing themselves in the role, there may be flexibility to work remotely approximately 3–4 days per week.
Career Opportunity:
This is a tremendous leadership and partnership-track opportunity for a younger attorney. Several experienced partners are approaching retirement and will need to transition their practices to the next generation of attorneys.
The firm is recognized as one of the leading medical malpractice defense firms in Northern New England and has a substantial volume of work. The right attorney will have the opportunity to maintain a full-time caseload and build a long-term practice with significant mentorship and growth potential.
Compensation:
Base salary: $115,000–$125,000+, depending on experience and qualifications.
Additional compensation is available through an associate bonus program. Strong-performing associates may receive approximately $10,000+ in annual bonuses. Salary may be flexible for an exceptional candidate or candidates with additional experience.
Excellent benefits are also provided.
