Health Care Litigation Associate 4th–7th Year

Minneapolis, Minnesota Hybrid

$290,000–$355,000 + Benefits & Bonuses





Watts & Associates is working discreetly with a highly regarded Am Law 200 national law firm seeking a 4th- to 7th-year Health Care Litigation Associate to join its Minneapolis office on a hybrid basis.





This is an excellent opportunity for a litigation associate who enjoys taking meaningful ownership of complex disputes while working closely with experienced partners on case strategy, discovery, briefing and trial preparation.





The firm offers a sophisticated national platform, nationally recognised health care and litigation capabilities, meaningful client exposure and a collaborative environment in which associates are encouraged to develop both their technical skills and their own professional profile.





Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This opportunity offers more than strong compensation and sophisticated matters.

The firm has an established reputation for handling complex, high-stakes disputes involving regulated industries and provides associates with:


- Meaningful responsibility and substantive case ownership
- Direct exposure to sophisticated national clients
- Close collaboration with experienced trial lawyers
- Structured mentoring, sponsorship and professional development
- Opportunities to strengthen advocacy skills through briefing, depositions, hearings, arbitrations and trial preparation
- A supportive lateral integration process designed to help attorneys build internal relationships and establish themselves within the practice
- The resources and credibility of a major national firm, without losing the collaborative feel of a closely connected team
- The hybrid structure provides regular in-office collaboration while retaining a degree of remote flexibility.






The Opportunity

The successful attorney will support and lead significant components of complex health care litigation matters, including:


- Health care-related class actions
- Complex commercial disputes
- Arbitration proceedings
- Discovery strategy and management
- Legal research and analysis
- Drafting and arguing substantive motions
- Deposition and trial preparation
- Strategic case development alongside partners and trial teams






Associates are given the opportunity to take ownership of substantive workstreams, contribute directly to case strategy and build relationships with clients and senior lawyers across the firm’s national platform.





Ideal Candidate Profile

The firm is seeking a 4th- to 7th-year associate with:


- Four to seven years of substantive litigation experience
- Strong litigation fundamentals, including discovery management, legal research and motions practice
- Excellent written and oral advocacy skills
- Experience drafting sophisticated briefs and substantive motions
- Admission to the state bar
- Strong academic credentials
- The ability to meet a 2,000-hour annual billable expectation
- Prior exposure to health care disputes, regulatory matters or health care industry clients, although this is not essential for 4th / 5th year






Compensation

The anticipated salary range for this position is $290,000 to $355,000, depending on class year, experience, qualifications and other relevant factors + benefits & bonuses.





All applications & discussions will be handled in strict confidence.
