Description

Stinson LLP seeks an Associate Attorney with two to four years of litigation experience to join our Minneapolis office.

We prefer candidates with experience from a regional, national, or outstanding local law firm. Excellent writing, oral advocacy skills, and academics are required. Clerkship and court experience are a plus. The successful candidate should have the following experience and skills:

  • Significant responsibility for pleadings, motions, and briefing on complex matters;
  • Proficiency handling e-discovery and fact development;
  • The confidence to tackle complex fact, legal, and logistical issues with foresight; and
  • The ability to be strategic and analytical in addressing client challenges, both legally and economically.

The role requires a candidate with strong interpersonal skills, a high degree of maturity, a willingness to learn, and a desire to manage a challenging workload on work spanning high-stakes litigation, arbitration, and trial work. We are relentlessly committed to client service and look for candidates who share that commitment.

Stinson has approximately 150 litigation attorneys (and nearly 450 total attorneys across the country) and represents clients in state, federal, tribal and other courts and tribunals throughout the U.S. We also often resolve matters without litigation by conducting investigations, engaging in pre-suit negotiations and employing alternative dispute resolution procedures such as arbitration and mediation. Qualified candidates will have two to four years of litigation experience and the ability to handle sophisticated litigation work at a national level. Active Minnesota license or eligibility to become admitted to the Minnesota bar is required.

Please apply online. Applicants should provide a resume, cover letter, unofficial law school transcript and a writing sample. For questions, contact recruiting@stinson.com.
