Our AmLaw 100 client is adding a junior associate to its Tax Controversy and Litigation group in Washington, D.C. This is a lean, high-judgment practice handling disputes that raise real statutory, procedural, and policy questions, not commodity work.

• Tackle issues that are often novel, technical, and unsettled
The Profile
• 1–3 years of tax controversy experience
• Strong legal writing and analytical skills are non-negotiable
• Prior experience with the IRS or DOJ, or a federal trial or appellate clerkship, is highly valued
• Exposure to international tax or transfer pricing concepts is a plus
• Top academic credentials expected
Why This Role
• Early responsibility in a nationally recognized tax litigation practice
• Direct training from lawyers who regularly handle high-stakes federal tax disputes
• Sophisticated matters that go well beyond routine examinations
