Job Description: Associate Attorney

Location: In-Office/In-Court (DFW Metroplex)

 

About the Firm

We are a small, tight-knit firm that prides itself on excellence, efficiency, and high-quality client service. Our practice focuses on delivering justice through the jury system, with cases ranging from defamation to murder, breach of contract to Anti-SLAPP, and violations of federal commodities regulations. We are known for tackling complex legal matters that others might avoid, practicing in both state and federal courts. Our clients include criminal defendants, often through court appointments, and civil litigants, including affluent individuals and business owners. We work hard—sometimes at all hours—but also value and respect time off, with our team typically taking about a month off per year. Our team culture is generous, focused, and serious about achieving outstanding results for our clients.

 

Position Overview

We are seeking an Associate Attorney with 2-5 years of experience to join our team.  The ideal candidate will have a passion for litigation, a commitment to excellence, and the flexibility to support senior attorneys while also managing a small number of their own cases. This is a hands-on role that involves significant client interaction, drafting legal documents, and collaborating on litigation strategies for jury trials.

 

Key Responsibilities

  •      Draft motions, discovery, and substantive legal documents in preparation for trial.

  •      Serve as a point of contact for clients, drafting statements of fact and handling client inquiries.

  •      Support senior attorneys with legal research, case preparation, and docket appearances as needed.

  •      Collaborate with support staff and team members to ensure efficiency and excellence.

  •      Occasionally act as the primary responsible attorney on smaller cases.

  •      Engage in community involvement to build goodwill and business for the firm.

  •      Handle travel within Texas, primarily in the DFW area, with occasional trips to other parts of the state for trial work.

 

Qualifications

  •      Juris Doctor (J.D.) from an ABA-accredited law school.

  •      Admission to the Texas State Bar (active and in good standing).

  •      Preferred: Experience in law review, mock trial, moot court, or the Order of Barristers.

  •      Members of the Black Law Student Association or Latinx Law Student Association are encouraged to apply.

  •      Strong proficiency in Microsoft Word, legal research tools (LexisNexis, Westlaw), and Mac computers.

  •      Technologically savvy with the ability to adapt to new software.

  •      Excellent communication skills and attention to detail.

  •      Understanding of the sales cycle and its impact on client management, from intake through post-judgment.

  •      Proven initiative and commitment to personal and professional growth.

  •      Experience owning, operating, or managing a business is a plus.

 

Work Environment

  •      Strictly in-office or in-court role.

  •      Standard office hours: 8:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m., with flexibility to meet deadlines outside these hours.

  •      Collaborative yet demanding environment with high expectations for dedication and work ethic.

 

Compensation and Benefits

  •      Salary depends on experience.

  •      100% employer-paid medical insurance for employees and their families.

  •      Short-term and long-term disability insurance, life insurance, 401(k) match, and profit sharing.

  •      Performance-based bonuses.

  •      Generous continuing legal education (CLE) support, legal association memberships, and time off to attend trial colleges.

 

Opportunities for Growth

  •      Comprehensive mentorship to refine litigation skills.

  •      Opportunities to develop a book of business.

  •      Advancement to leadership roles, including acting as first chair in jury trials.

 

Culture

  •      Tight-knit, driven, and supportive team.

  •      Emphasis on work-life balance, with the average employee taking a month off annually.

  •      Commitment to excellence, efficiency, and high-quality customer service.
