About Latitude

Latitude provides high caliber attorneys and other legal professionals to legal departments and law firms nationwide. We provide practice-specific contract attorneys who have served as associates, counsel, and partners in Am Law firms and/or as in-house counsel in large corporate legal departments. We also assist many of our clients with permanent positions, including general counsel searches. Our clients range from Fortune Global 500 companies and Global 100 law firms to high-growth privately-held companies, major non-profits, government entities, and boutique law firms.

Latitude Partners are all former senior lawyers at law firms or legal departments, and have extensive community ties, practice experience and professional relationships. Latitude has offices in multiple cities across the United States and more than 5,000 attorneys in our talent pool (including attorneys in all 50 states). We are also globally ranked by Chambers & Partners.

The Role

Latitude is seeking highly entrepreneurial attorneys to join our team as partner-owners who will help us expand our footprint across the U.S. This is not a traditional legal role. Instead, it’s an opportunity to build your own business within the Latitude platform, develop client relationships, and be directly responsible for your own success.

As a Partner, you’ll co-own a Latitude operating company with its own P&L. With access to capital, national infrastructure, and a proven model, you’ll be given resources and playbooks that will enable you to grow your business your own way. While Latitude Partners have significant autonomy, flexibility, and a family-friendly schedule, success in this performance-based role requires full-time professional focus. Practicing law on the side or managing other work commitments is incompatible with the expectations and potential of this opportunity.

What Makes a Successful Partner:

Absolute Dedication to Getting It Right

Our clients include some of the largest, most successful companies and law firms in the world — from Fortune 500 corporations to elite boutiques, Am Law 100 and 200 firms, and high-growth companies. Latitude clients expect precisely matched talent, and the most successful Partners are phenomenal listeners who obsess over finding the right fit.

Extreme Ownership and Responsiveness

Our highest performing Partners take full responsibility for the client experience, responding with urgency and focus, even outside standard hours when necessary. Latitude’s value is grounded in our status as a trust advisor, and that trust is earned by those who take full ownership of every engagement.

Relentless Drive to Build and Sell

You must thrive on business development — connecting with many decision-makers, talking about Latitude, and putting yourself out there. Having a strong legal network, especially among decision-makers at law firms and legal departments, can significantly accelerate your success.

What You’ll Do

Launch and lead a Latitude operating company
Build and manage trusted relationships with law firms and in-house legal teams
Drive growth through proactive outreach, referrals, and market leadership
Match elite attorneys with sophisticated clients (this is a business leadership role — not a legal practice)
Represent the Latitude brand locally and nationally

What We’re Looking For

Experience as a senior attorney in a law firm or corporate legal department
A strong network of legal decision-makers
Demonstrated business development potential and grit
High level of drive and ownership mentality
A strong desire to build something that’s yours — and grow it over time
Compensation
Total Compensation Range: $200k to $1M+ annually (Includes base salary, bonuses & incentives, profit distributions, and equity tied to market performance)
First Year Base Salary: $150K to $250K depending on equity structure (Salary phases out over time as profit distributions increase)
Bonuses & Incentives: Performance-based, designed as a bridge to profit distributions and long-term equity
Benefits: Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life, LTD, and 401(k)

Confidentiality & How To Apply

If you are interested in this role, you may apply online and/or you are welcome to directly email Alex Su in confidence at asu@latitudelegal.com. Interested candidates may then be asked to complete a sales exercise that enables them to hit the ground running as a Latitude Partner.
