Company Description
VRD Legal is a premier full-service law firm based in Montenegro, known for providing integrated legal solutions for complex legal issues. The firm is focused on guiding clients through Montenegro's regulatory framework and addressing international legal challenges with precision and confidence. Our team is dedicated to providing high-quality legal services to meet client needs effectively.
About the Role
We’re looking for a full-time Associate to join our team in Podgorica. In this role, you’ll be involved in a variety of day-to-day legal work: from drafting documents and conducting research to advising clients and supporting transactions. You’ll work closely with colleagues across practice areas, ensuring our clients get well-rounded, practical solutions.
The position is primarily office-based, but we do offer a hybrid model with flexibility to work from home when needed.
Qualifications
We’re not big on long checklists. What matters most is that you:
- Have a law degree (and admission to the Montenegro Bar, or on your way there)
- Can think clearly, write well, and communicate with confidence
- Are curious, responsible, and willing to learn
- Speak English and Montenegrin comfortably
Everything else? We can figure out and grow together.
What we offer
Work that keeps things interesting – from local cases to cross-border deals and disputes
Real client contact and responsibility from day one (we don’t keep juniors in the back room)
A supportive team where you can grow quickly and actually enjoy the process
Guidance and mentorship from partners who are invested in your development
The chance to get involved in new, forward-thinking projects beyond “classic” legal work
A hybrid setup – mostly office-based, but with the flexibility to work from home when needed
Opportunities to join conferences, trainings, and networking events to keep learning and connecting
A genuine voice in shaping our team culture and future direction
Competitive pay, with lots of room to develop your career as the firm grows
