Litigation Attorneys

Join the Team at Monaco Cooper Lamme & Carr, PLLC

We’re not your typical law firm — and that’s exactly how we like it.

At MCLC, we’ve built a different kind of law firm — one that combines legal excellence with a genuinely supportive and collaborative environment. You won’t find corner offices or luxury decor here. What you will find are sharp, motivated professionals doing meaningful work, growing together, and enjoying the journey.

We’re serious about what we do, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. We celebrate wins (big and small), make time to laugh, and believe that enjoying where you work matters.

We’re currently seeking two experienced litigation attorneys to join our Albany office. One position is for a general litigator with experience or an interest in Trucking & Transportation law; the second position is for a medical malpractice attorney.

Because here, you’re more than a title or billing number. You are a valued part of a team where your work matters and where your professional growth is supported every step of the way.

Our culture is built on:

• Mentorship and leadership development
• Genuine collaboration across practice areas and attorneys
• Opportunities to make a real impact, both inside and outside the office
• Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Women in the Law

MCLC fosters a culture of opportunity and advancement by providing a platform for success at all levels, from mentoring to education and training to marketing and business development. At MCLC, we welcome and celebrate people of all backgrounds and identities. We are committed to recruiting, hiring, and promoting individuals without regard to age, race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic.

MCLC is an Equal Opportunity Employer.

Actual compensation will depend on many factors, including but not limited to the candidate’s years of experience, qualifications, skill set, and overall experience.

Our full suite of benefits includes:

• Medical, dental, vision, life, and long‑term disability insurance
• 401(k) retirement plan
• Paid holidays, vacation, sick, and personal time
• Paid bar fees, CLEs, professional memberships, and seminars
