Job Description
Business Litigation Counsel – Atlanta, GA
Direct Counsel is representing an Amlaw 100 firm.

An Amlaw 100 firm is seeking a Counsel-level attorney to join its Business Litigation Practice Group in Atlanta, Georgia. This is an excellent opportunity for a skilled litigator seeking a long-term role with reduced billable hours and no partner-track pressure, while still working on high-quality matters for sophisticated clients.

About the Role:

This off-track Counsel position is ideal for attorneys who want to focus on substantive legal work and client service without the demands of partnership pursuit. You will support a dynamic team representing financial institutions and corporate clients in a broad range of single-plaintiff litigation matters.

Key Qualifications:
  • Minimum of 3 years of litigation experience, specifically representing companies and/or financial institutions in matters involving contracts, loan agreements, mortgages, or leases.

  • Strong preference for attorneys with Georgia litigation experience.

  • Must possess strong academic credentials and exceptional written and oral communication skills.

  • Georgia Bar admission required or eligibility to obtain promptly.

Why This Role?
  • Off-track/Counsel position – not on the partner track.

  • Reduced billable hour requirements, allowing for greater work-life balance.

  • Opportunity to work on sophisticated commercial litigation within a nationally respected AmLaw 100 platform.


If you’re seeking a steady, fulfilling litigation role with excellent clients, competitive compensation, and a more sustainable pace, this Counsel opportunity in Atlanta may be the right fit.
