Your next case is already waiting.
A lateral move should mean more than a new letterhead. At Seiden Law, it means real ownership of consequential cases from the first week.
The attorneys who come to Seiden Law are not looking for a lateral move. They are looking for a different kind of practice.
At most large firms, courtroom experience is a distant promise. Files are measured in hundreds. Partners are supervisors, not collaborators. The work is real, but the contribution is invisible.
Seiden Law is built differently. Attorneys here argue motions, attend depositions, and participate in trial preparation on matters they have owned from the beginning. Partners are working litigators who are present on every matter, not reviewers at the top of a chain. And the cases themselves, sovereign nation representations, landmark anti-terrorism litigation, cross-border judgment enforcement, are the kind that define a career, not fill a timesheet.
If you have built a strong record and want to see what you can do when the work is fully yours, this is where that happens.

What joining Seiden Law looks like
Attorneys who join Seiden Law are assigned to active matters from the outset. Partners are working litigators who are engaged on every matter alongside their associates, in court, in depositions, and in strategy. The relationship between partners and associates here is built around shared accountability for outcomes, not delegation and review.
The firm’s matters are international in scope. Seiden Law coordinates with counsel across London, Tel Aviv, Beijing, Hong Kong, Dubai, the Cayman Islands, Africa, Switzerland, Russia, Ukraine, and Mexico, and has managed parallel proceedings across multiple forums simultaneously. Attorneys at Seiden Law are part of that international practice, not peripheral to it.
Chambers USA recognized the firm for Litigation: General Commercial in 2025. Seven attorneys were named to the Lawdragon 500 X: The Next Generation list that same year. The Managing Partner and two partners were named to the Lawdragon 500 Leading Litigators in America. That recognition reflects a sustained standard of performance, not a single matter.
What we look for
Seiden Law recruits attorneys with demonstrated experience in high-stakes litigation and a commitment to excellence across every stage of a case. Beyond background and credentials, the attorneys who thrive here tend to share a few characteristics.
- They bring genuine expertise in one or more of the firm's practice areas and are ready to deploy it immediately on active cases.
- They think strategically and precisely, even when the governing law is unsettled or the forum is unfamiliar.
- They hold themselves accountable to outcomes, not just deliverables. Work product is not a task completed. It is a contribution to a matter that matters.
- They are drawn to international, cross-border, and multi-jurisdictional work, and are comfortable in environments where the rules are not always clearly defined.
