Working at Woods & Woods

From our work culture to our casual dress, you won’t find another firm quite like ours, and it’s the reason our attorneys stay with us. Woods & Woods is committed to redefining the expectations of being a lawyer at a large law firm.

So what does that look like in practice?

First, our Senior Attorneys work fewer hours for higher pay than those at comparable firms. We understand you went to law school to earn a nice living, not to spend your life at your desk around the clock.

Work life balance is a priority

for our team, and we offer flexible schedules.

We want our employees to be able to have fun together, on and off the clock. The Woods & Woods Fun Committee is responsible for planning activities like our office Field Day, annual Christmas party, and optional, off-hours trips to wineries, pumpkin patches, baseball games, and more. We even have a company wiffle ball team. These events help you get to know your coworkers and their families and to blow off steam.

In addition to our culture, our team has the honor of working with and fighting on behalf of our nation’s veterans. Our job is to get them the full disability compensation they deserve for service-connected injuries and diseases. Through this meaningful work, many of our employees get to know our clients and care deeply about getting justice for them.

Some of our staff have worked for Woods & Woods for five, ten, even twenty years. We are looking for resourceful, organized, strategic, and dependable Associate Attorneys to join those ranks.

Compensation at Woods & Woods

Associate Attorney pay starts at $70,000 a year (commensurate with experience) and increases quarterly to a cap of $90,000. Associate Attorneys have the opportunity for promotion to a Senior Attorney position that includes fee sharing.
