Description

Looking for Your Next Opportunity in Construction Claims, Dispute Advisory, or Forensic Consulting?

At DLA, our FVLS team supports clients in high-stakes situations, providing forensic accounting, fraud investigations, business valuations, damages calculations, and litigation support services. You'll have the opportunity to deliver insights that shape outcomes while working in a supportive, growth-oriented environment. If you're passionate about forensic accounting, valuation, and litigation support, you'll find meaningful work here with a team that values People First, is Driven to Deliver, Evolves with Purpose, and is Stronger Together.

We're currently looking for a Managing Director or Partner - Construction Expert Witness to join our Forensics, Valuation & Litigation Support (FVLS) team in the NYC metro area. If you're ready to take on high-profile disputes and arbitration support work, and grow your career in a people-first firm, we'd love to hear from you!

What You'll Do

As a leader at the firm, you will expand DLA's capabilities through hands-on practice building. Your day-to-day may include :

  • Leading engagements involving construction litigation, delay analysis, quantum and damages assessments, and cost disputes
  • Providing expert testimony in depositions, mediations, arbitrations, and trials
  • Conducting forensic analysis of infrastructure and capital projects, including delays, defects, compliance, and cost overruns
  • Preparing expert reports, demonstratives, and litigation exhibits that withstand cross-examination
  • Supporting attorneys and stakeholders with clear technical and financial insights
  • Developing and executing strategic growth plans for the FVLS practice
  • Building client relationships and generating new business opportunities
  • Mentoring junior team members and fostering practice development

What You'll Bring

We know great team members come from all kinds of backgrounds. Some things we typically look for :

  • A degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or a related field (advanced degree a plus)
  • 12+ years of experience in construction, engineering, project management, or dispute resolution
  • Proven track record as an expert witness in construction or infrastructure disputes
  • Certifications such as PE, AIA, PMP, or CCM
  • Strong communication skills to simplify complex technical issues
  • A collaborative spirit and entrepreneurial mindset
  • Willingness to travel as needed for client matters
  • Why Join DLA?

    We're not your typical firm. DLA combines the expertise of a national advisory practice with the flexibility and entrepreneurial spirit of a startup. You'll work with leaders who value your voice, invest in your growth, and support your career journey. Here's what sets us apart :

  • Emphasis on work-life balance compared to traditional audit firms
  • Flexible PTO (plus your birthday as a holiday)
  • Direct client exposure from day one
  • Career path to leadership & Partner
  • Hybrid work model with flexibility built in
  • 401(k) match, referral programs, and comprehensive benefits
  • Come Be a Part of Our Success Story

    At DLA, we're committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace. We hire great people from all backgrounds-because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for forensic consulting and dispute resolution, you'll find a home here.

    We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and are committed to providing reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities throughout the application process.
