Position Summary

A highly reputable plaintiff-side litigation firm is seeking qualified lawyers with 2+ years of experience to join its growing securities class actions practice.

This role offers an excellent opportunity to work for a large North American law firm on high-profile litigation that promotes corporate accountability and advances access to justice.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage and advance securities and commercial class action files from investigation through resolution.
  • Conduct legal research, draft pleadings, motions, facta, and other litigation materials.
  • Analyze disclosure documents, regulatory filings, financial records, and evidentiary materials.
  • Participate in examinations, mediations, settlement negotiations, and court appearances.
  • Collaborate with experts, investigators, co-counsel, and litigation support teams.
  • Advise clients and class representatives on litigation strategy and case developments.
  • Assist in identifying and evaluating potential securities misrepresentation claims and other shareholder-related causes of action.
  • Contribute to the strategic development and prosecution of complex class proceedings.



Qualifications

  • Member in good standing with the Law Society of Ontario, and admission to a U.S. state bar is considered an asset.
  • Experience in civil litigation, securities litigation, class actions, commercial litigation, or related practice areas.
  • Strong advocacy, legal research, and written and oral communication skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage complex legal matters and competing priorities.
  • Sound judgment, analytical thinking, and attention to detail.
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a team environment.

Preferred Attributes

  • Experience with class proceedings, securities regulation, shareholder disputes, or regulatory investigations.
  • Familiarity with publicly traded companies, continuous disclosure obligations, and market misconduct matters.
  • A strong commitment to plaintiff-side litigation, investor protection, and access to justice.

Work Environment

  • Primarily in-office, as senior lawyers will also be working primarily in-office. Hybrid work arrangements may be considered based on experience and individual needs.

Compensation

  • Compensation will be competitive and commensurate with individual qualifications and experience.
