Job description

Lawyer, Infrastructure Projects and Construction

Montreal

Our client, a boutique law firm handling high-profile construction litigation matters and advising institutional clients on infrastructure projects, is currently seeking a seasoned lawyer with a minimum of five years’ experience in construction litigation, or in civil and commercial litigation, to join its talented and dynamic team. Experience advising on infrastructure projects, whether in-house or in private practice, will be considered a significant asset.

Are you currently practising litigation in a well-established regional or national law firm? Do you have a passion for advocacy, but are seeking a better work–life balance? Are you at a crossroads in your career and looking for a stimulating new opportunity?

The employer we represent offers the ideal combination of engaging and diverse mandates within a friendly, balanced work environment. With no billable-hour targets and a desire to distinguish itself from the traditional large-firm model, this firm also offers highly competitive working conditions and attractive compensation.

This is a unique opportunity to be involved in large-scale, strategic files, to benefit from excellent working conditions, and above all, to achieve a true work–life balance.

On a day-to-day basis, you will collaborate with outstanding colleagues, enjoy a high degree of autonomy, and play a key role in resolving complex matters, all within a highly collegial and pleasant working environment.

YOUR ROLE:

  • Advise institutional clients on infrastructure projects;
  • Draft legal opinions and complex pleadings, particularly in construction litigation matters;
  • Appear before the courts;
  • Work on files spanning various areas of civil and commercial litigation, including class actions as plaintiff.

REQUIRED SKILLS:

  • Member in good standing of the Québec Bar;
  • Minimum of five (5) years of litigation experience in an established law firm;
  • Experience in construction litigation, a significant asset;
  • Experience in infrastructure projects, a significant asset;
  • Strong ability to work independently;
  • Team-oriented mindset;
  • Leadership skills and strong priority-management abilities.

INTERESTED IN THIS CHALLENGE? We look forward to meeting you!

Please send your application as soon as possible to: [email protected], indicating the reference number: 26-0117P.

Should you wish to discuss this opportunity in more detail before sending your resume, our team will be pleased to provide you with further information.
