This job is for our virtual satellite office in Texas.

Remember why you went to law school? We do, too! We have been building a firm to help you preserve those ideals.

Our mission is to increase access to high-quality legal services for small businesses, nonprofits, and moderate-income individuals. Our vision is to be a full-service firm for these groups. Therefore, our areas of law are broad, and we welcome all expertise. No prior experience is required, but 2+ years is a plus.

Our firm is not for everyone; but for some, we are a unique fit. We compensate purely through revenue sharing, and our firm culture is different from a typical law firm. We are looking for someone entrepreneurial—we will help you develop business, but we expect our attorneys to take a proactive role in building their clientele. Our model is working well for our current attorneys, and we are looking to add to our team.

We compensate our attorneys purely on a revenue-sharing model, and you keep more of the money you earn. While many firms keep at least 2/3 of your billable fees, our revenue-sharing model inverts that proportion. You keep 60% of fees for cases you originate and service (30% for labor, 30% for origination), and you keep 50% of fees that come in through our legal insurance partners (we provide intake and other support for these legal insurance cases) and for clients who find us online. Please make sure you are comfortable with this model (all revenue sharing, no base salary) before applying. But while there is no base salary, there is also no ceiling, so your compensation can grow along with you. The salary range listed is for illustrative purposes only.

Please note: while this position can be full or part-time, it is a W-2 position and is expected to be your exclusive law practice, not a side hustle or of-counsel type relationship.

Job Duties

• We handle a variety of areas of law and are looking for talented attorneys with good analytical skills and good "bedside manner"
• Develop a book of business
• Manage your own caseload
• Ensure compliance with rules of professional conduct

Benefits/Perks

• Subsidized health, dental, and vision insurance (eligible after 60 days)
• Retirement matching up to 3% (eligible after 90 days)
• Freedom similar to having your own practice, but we take care of expenses, staff support, marketing, and running the business
• Assistance with business development
• Payment as W-2 employee
• Great deal of autonomy, independence, and flexibility
• Great team with strong connections despite our multi-state presence
• Revenue sharing compensation allows you the freedom to decide how much to work and the ability to make passive income if you bring in enough business

Ideal Candidate

• Entrepreneurial attitude
• Can bring in business
• Ability to work independently
• Litigation experience is preferred but not required
• Enthusiasm about working in an untraditional law firm
• Commitment to ethics and civility in the practice of law
