Entry Level Litigation Partner Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level litigation partner job?
Focus on demonstrating courtroom exposure through law school clinics, moot court, or internships at litigation-focused firms. Employers hiring at the entry level look for candidates who can draft motions, conduct legal research, and communicate clearly under pressure. Tailoring your resume to show specific litigation tasks, even from academic settings, gives you a real edge over candidates with generic legal experience.
Which companies hire entry level litigation partners?
Companies hiring entry level litigation partners right now include Epic, Jobot, and Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith LLP, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At the entry level, hiring tends to come from mid-size regional law firms, corporate legal departments, and public sector offices that build their litigation bench by bringing on junior attorneys early.
Are there remote entry level litigation partner jobs?
Yes, though most litigation roles have an on-site or hybrid component due to court appearances and client work. About 24% of entry level litigation partner openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, making flexibility more available than many candidates expect. Filtering by work setting on Migrate Mate helps you find openings that match your preferred arrangement.
Are these new grad litigation partner jobs?
Yes, many of these listings are new grad and junior roles that explicitly welcome recent graduates and candidates with little or no professional experience. A new grad-friendly posting typically accepts zero to two years of experience, counts law school clinics or internships toward qualifications, and values academic performance or a writing portfolio over a long work history.
Which industries hire the most entry level litigation partners?
Entry Level litigation partner roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Healthcare & Medical Services, and Staffing & Recruiting, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive junior litigation hiring because they face high volumes of disputes, regulatory matters, and contract issues that require dedicated litigation support, creating consistent openings for candidates entering the field.
