Description

Who We Are:  
Lowenstein Sandler is a one of the most sophisticated law firms in the United States, with over 400 lawyers and 300 business services professionals serving clients from offices in New York, Palo Alto, Roseland, Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and Wilmington. We recruit candidates who seek a collaborative, entrepreneurial culture that prioritizes our clients, our colleagues, and the communities where we work and live. Committed to career development and to a diverse and inclusive workplace, the firm offers many programs and opportunities for personal and professional growth. We seek professionals for our business services group who share these values.

What You Will Do: 
Lowenstein Sandler is seeking a Practice Innovation Attorney whose primary focus is equipping attorneys with the skills, tools, and workflows to excel in an AI-enabled legal environment. This is a hands-on, attorney-facing role centered on building and delivering training programs, designing AI-augmented workflows, and embedding generative AI tools into the day-to-day practice of law.

The Practice Innovation Attorney serves as the firm’s primary internal resource for attorney AI literacy and adoption—a credible peer who can translate cutting-edge technology into practical, practice-specific guidance. This role is a cornerstone of the firm’s Vision 2030 AI and data transformation initiative.

• Support the development and communication of AI usage guidelines, acceptable use policies, and quality assurance processes aligned with ABA professional responsibility standards.
• Serve as a resource for attorneys navigating questions about AI accuracy, supervision obligations (ABA Rules 5.1/5.3), and candor to courts in AI-assisted work.
• Monitor developments in legal AI, ethics guidance, and regulatory frameworks—providing timely, well-grounded guidance to firm leadership and practice groups

Skills, Knowledge and Abilities: 

This is not a traditional legal technology or knowledge management role. The Practice Innovation Attorney at Lowenstein Sandler is primarily an educator, a workflow designer, and an AI adoption champion - one whose effectiveness is measured by how confidently and effectively attorneys use AI tools in their practice. The ideal candidate brings the credibility of a practicing attorney, the clarity of a skilled teacher, and the curiosity of an early adopter.

You will have direct access to firm leadership, practice group chairs, and a dedicated innovation and IT team - working as a trusted peer across all levels of the firm to shape how legal work gets done at Lowenstein Sandler for the next decade.

The expected salary range for candidates meeting the requirements of this position is $200,000 to $250,000.
