Senior Legal Counsel, Commercial Litigation

Imagine what you could do here. At Apple, new ideas have a way of becoming great products, services, and customer experiences very quickly. Bring passion and dedication to your job and there's no telling what you could accomplish. Do you love taking on big challenges without precedent? Do you possess a deep knowledge of the legal field and a passion for innovation? As a part of our commercial litigation team, you'll help provide legal support for all our products and businesses. Working for a company that invents entire categories and industries means you'll be challenged to creatively apply your deep legal expertise to rare and often unexplored aspects of the law. We are looking for a senior litigator to join Apple's commercial litigation team. The ideal candidate is a seasoned business-to-business litigator who thrives in a fast-paced environment where priorities and conditions can shift on a daily basis. This role requires a lawyer with exceptional judgment, the ability to deliver concise and actionable advice in real time, and the experience to independently drive complex, high-stakes commercial disputes across multiple jurisdictions around the world.

As a member of Apple's Commercial Litigation team, you will not be merely monitoring outside counsel. Rather, you will personally be formulating and driving strategy as well as providing counsel to internal clients on a wide range of novel matters. The position requires a high degree of self-sufficiency, independent judgment and a trial-focused approach. Travel is required. You will operate as part of a supportive and fun team of lawyers, legal specialists and support staff who work closely together to protect Apple's interests.
