The right platform can make a significant difference in your exposure to complex securities disputes, investigations, corporate governance matters, and high-stakes litigation. Aligned Talent Acquisition welcomes conversations with Securities Litigation Associate Attorneys who may be considering their next career move. I work primarily with Am Law 50, 100, and 200 firms, but I also frequently partner with small and midsize firms, respected regional firms, and sophisticated boutiques across multiple markets. Not currently practicing at an Am Law firm? I'd still love to hear from you! I welcome associates from firms of all sizes and value relevant experience, skills, and career goals. Areas of Experience Securities class actions Shareholder and derivative litigationSEC investigations and enforcement matters Corporate governance disputes Complex commercial and financial litigation What Could Your Next Move Offer? More complex and high-profile securities matters Greater responsibility and client exposure Stronger compensation and bonus potential Better mentorship and litigation resources Clearer advancement opportunities Sometimes the right career opportunity starts with a conversation long before you're ready to leave.

However, I work with numerous law firms across multiple markets and may already have active opportunities that align with your experience and career goals. Whether there's an immediate fit or we stay connected for the right opportunity down the road, I'd welcome the chance to learn more about your background, compensation expectations, and what matters most to you in your next move. All conversations are confidential. Your resume and identifying information will never be shared with a firm without your permission.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
