Job Summary

The Corporate and Warranty Claims Litigation Counsel will manage and oversee corporate, commercial, contractual, warranty, and service-contract litigation and disputes involving the client.

This attorney will work closely with business leaders and internal stakeholders to assess legal and financial risk, develop litigation strategies, manage outside counsel, resolve disputes, and protect the company's financial interests and reputation.

The ideal candidate will have strong litigation experience, particularly involving insurance, warranty, consumer claims, commercial disputes, and regulatory matters, and will be comfortable managing multiple complex matters across jurisdictions.

Responsibilities

Oversee corporate litigation, including commercial, contractual, and regulatory enforcement matters.

Lead and manage warranty and service contract litigation, including consumer claims, coverage disputes, subrogation matters, and dealer/vendor disputes.

Develop and implement effective litigation strategies aligned with business objectives and risk-management goals.

Direct and manage outside counsel, including case strategy, performance, budgets, and legal spend.

Evaluate claims, legal exposure, and potential financial risk and pursue appropriate resolutions through negotiation, settlement, arbitration, or litigation.

Prepare and manage responses to demand letters, subpoenas, discovery requests, and other legal matters.

Coordinate internal fact investigations and prepare witnesses for depositions, hearings, and other proceedings.

Provide litigation-risk guidance related to contract drafting and claims-handling procedures.

Assist with regulatory inquiries, investigations, and enforcement matters.

Partner with business leaders and internal teams to identify opportunities to resolve disputes before they escalate into litigation.

Track litigation metrics, analyze trends, and provide senior management with regular updates regarding litigation status, risk exposure, and legal spend.

Manage multiple matters and deadlines in a fast-paced, business-oriented environment.

Qualifications

Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from an accredited law school.

Admission to at least one U.S. State Bar.

6–8 years of litigation and dispute-resolution experience.

Proven experience managing outside counsel, litigation budgets, and multi-jurisdictional matters.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Ability to explain complex legal issues clearly and in a business-oriented manner to senior leaders and non-legal stakeholders.

Strong organizational and time-management skills with the ability to manage multiple matters simultaneously.

Prior experience in insurance, financial services, or another highly regulated industry is preferred.

Must be comfortable working in an in-office environment in New York City.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is a seasoned litigation attorney with 6–8+ years of experience who combines strong legal judgment with a practical, business-focused approach.

They should have meaningful experience handling commercial disputes, warranty/service contract claims, insurance-related litigation, consumer claims, and regulatory matters. The successful candidate will be confident managing outside counsel, evaluating exposure, controlling litigation costs, and advising senior business leaders.

Experience working within an insurance or other regulated industry would be highly valuable.

Simple Explanation of the Job

This attorney will be an in-house litigation expert.

When the company faces lawsuits, warranty disputes, consumer claims, commercial disagreements, subpoenas, or regulatory issues, this person will determine the company's legal position, develop the strategy, work with outside attorneys when necessary, and help business leaders decide the best way to resolve the matter.

The role is not just about going to court. A major part of the job is preventing disputes from becoming expensive litigation, reducing legal and financial risk, managing outside lawyers, and providing practical legal advice to the business.

Because this is an in-office New York City position, the candidate must be comfortable working regularly from the company's New York office.
