Entry Level Litigation Attorney Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level litigation attorney job?
Focus on demonstrating practical courtroom-adjacent experience: law school clinics, moot court, externships, or internships at litigation firms give you concrete examples to discuss in interviews. Employers at this level look for strong legal writing and research skills, familiarity with civil procedure, and the ability to assist with discovery and case preparation. Tailoring your resume to litigation-specific tasks, not just general legal work, gives you a real edge.
Which companies hire entry level litigation attorneys?
Companies hiring entry level litigation attorneys right now include Epic, Jobot, and Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith LLP, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring comes from a broad range of employers, including regional and national law firms, corporate legal departments, government agencies, and public interest organizations that regularly bring on new attorneys to support active caseloads.
Are there remote entry level litigation attorney jobs?
Yes, though fully remote roles are less common in litigation than in some other legal fields given court appearances and in-person depositions. About 25% of entry level litigation attorney openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with hybrid arrangements being the more typical setup, often allowing attorneys to work from home on research and drafting while attending court or client meetings in person.
Are these new grad litigation attorney jobs?
Yes, many of the listings here are new grad friendly and include junior and recent graduate roles that explicitly welcome candidates with zero to two years of experience. A posting is generally new grad friendly when it lists internships, law school clinics, or a strong academic record as qualifying experience rather than requiring prior attorney experience. Searching by experience level helps you find roles built for candidates starting out.
Which industries hire the most entry level litigation attorneys?
Entry Level litigation attorney roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Healthcare & Medical Services, and Staffing & Recruiting, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors tend to drive hiring at the junior level because they generate high volumes of disputes, regulatory matters, and contract work that require litigation support, giving new attorneys hands-on case exposure early in their careers.
