Thank you for your interest in a career with McCandlish Lillard.
Attorneys at McCandlish enjoy potential for advancement, significant client contact, cross-marketing, a collegial, stimulating and increasingly diverse practice environment, and a friendly workplace.
The firm is always on the lookout for more excellent attorneys, from senior principals to associates.
In addition, the firm is looking for growth opportunities, and therefore we also seek qualified attorneys, or even groups, at various levels of experience and in numerous fields of practice, who have a reasonable or excellent amount of portable business, whether in an existing area that we practice or in a new area that could be beneficial to our clients, present and future.
McCandlish Lillard has provided legal services in Northern Virginia since 1908, but its history is an active and evolving one. Wherever possible, it has broadened its practice areas and welcomed outstanding lawyers through lateral hiring.
The firm's principals take the Summer Associates Program seriously, because we know that the search for the firm's future principals begins here.
The chief purpose of the Summer Associate Program is to present Summer Associates with a true experience of firm life. Most importantly, this means that Summer Associates will go to Court with firm attorneys, attend depositions, sit in on complex business transactions, participate in "brainstorming" sessions, and receive real, billable research assignments.
It is McCandlish Lillard's policy to offer Equal Employment Opportunity to all its applicants and employees. Employment decisions shall be based on merit, qualifications, and competence.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, gender, national origin, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, pregnancy, or status as a protected veteran.
