Litigation Strategist (973-SLS)

New York, NYRemoteFull-time

AI Summary

Litigation Strategist joining a Latin AI unicorn’s first U.S. legal hire to advise clients, analyze litigation data, and design embedded legal workflows for a platform that defends businesses in high-volume litigation.

About this role

Our client, Latin America’s first AI unicorn, backed by Founders Fund and Sequoia, has exclusively retained Solutus Legal Search to assist in its search for its first U.S. attorney, a Litigation Strategist. The company builds software that defends businesses against high volumes of individual litigation, gathering evidence, detecting fraud, supporting strategy development, and helping to generate responses, reducing the cost of litigation. Now building its U.S. presence, the company is making this first U.S. legal hire a foundational one.

As Litigation Strategist, you'll bring U.S. litigation expertise into the core of the company’s product work. You'll have relevant client exposure, helping in-house legal teams unlock the full potential of the platform while ensuring the technology reflects how litigation actually works in practice.

Responsibilities Include:

  • Work directly with clients’ in-house lawyers to understand pain points and opportunities across high-volume litigation, helping to adapt the company’s approach to U.S. law.
  • Analyze litigation data trends, outcomes, judicial behavior, and claim patterns to help optimize the company’s product design
  • Lead the design and development of workflow templates, frameworks, and other legal content embedded in the platform for use within client workflows by in-house legal teams and outside attorneys
  • Partner closely with product, engineering and leadership teams
  • The Ideal Candidate

    The ideal candidate is a sharp, business-minded litigator energized by the chance to move from running individual cases to shaping how to approach thousands of them. Strong candidates will bring:

  • A practice built defending large volumes of similar individual cases — in areas such as consumer, financial services, insurance defense, product liability, pharma, mass-tort defense, or consumer and mass arbitration (AAA)
  • Excellent drafting and writing, sharp analytical and pattern-recognition instincts, and comfort working with data
  • The executive presence to be credible with clients, and an interest in partnering closely with product teams (the company will help the right person grow into that work)
  • Approximately four to six years of litigation experience, strong academic and law-firm credentials, a J.D., and active U.S. bar membership (New York preferred)
  • Skills
