Overview

We are seeking a

highly capable New York–admitted litigation attorney

to support a confidential, high-stakes securities and commercial fraud matter pending in or moving toward the Southern District of New York.

This role is

not

suited for large firms, junior associates, or attorneys seeking training. It is designed for

solo practitioners, boutique litigators, or small firms

with real courtroom and discovery experience who can operate independently and decisively against sophisticated defendants.

Pedigree is irrelevant.

Execution is everything.

Core Responsibilities

Act as lead and/or local counsel for SDNY procedural matters, filings, and jurisdictional strategy

Take primary responsibility for: complex discovery strategy, depositions (fact and expert)

Provide sharp, pragmatic input on: pleadings, motions to dismiss, opposition briefs

Ensure procedural precision with court communications, filings, and deadlines

Coordinate efficiently with an in‑house research and drafting team (you are not doing junior work)

Required Qualifications

JD and

active admission to SDNY

Demonstrated experience in one or more of: complex breach of contract, RICO or RICO‑adjacent theories

Extensive hands‑on discovery experience, including taking and defending depositions

Clear understanding of

what survives a motion to dismiss

in SDNY and why

No current or recent conflicts with

prospective institutional financial defendants

(to be vetted)

Ability to work efficiently and intelligently with: modern legal research tools, AI‑assisted drafting and analysis (judgment still required)

Engagement Terms

Compensation structured as: competitive hourly or defined‑scope fee arrangement

This is a serious litigation engagement, not a speculative or vanity role

Why This Role

Substantive responsibility without bureaucracy

Strategic influence in a meaningful, contested matter

Clean structure, decisive client, and no tolerance for inefficiency

Confidentiality will be maintained throughout the process.
