Job description

Alongside Corgi, we operate an MSO that supports adjacent legal practices. Bulldog Trial Lawyers is one of those practices as a plaintiff-side employment firm that is looking for its first litigators and partners. The firm is backed with capital and an operations team of the MSO.

We need our first litigator.

The candidate will be crucial to growing the practice. We expect you to take cases now and mentor associates as we add them. We do not expect you to handle marketing, tech, or payroll. We handle everything non-legal.

The first attorneys we hire get favorable draw, equity and bonus packages. Experience gained in building out the firm in the first few months will be priceless and put you head and shoulders above the 10th or 100th litigator we hire. Comp is structured around a guaranteed draw plus contingency participation — uncapped.

Geography is flexible. We open the office where you are. AZ, NV, NY, NJ, MA, WA, TN, GA, FL, CO — all on the table.

Who we want.

• Plaintiff employment litigator with experience in discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination, harassment, wage & hour
• The ability to take a case from intake through trial or settlement without hand-holding
• 3+ years preferred; will consider 2 years for the right candidate
• Active bar in any US jurisdiction
• If you've built your own firm before - you will have unmatched support and resources this time.

What we offer.

• Guaranteed draw — $200k with contingency-fee participation targeting $250,000+ all-in compensation
• Equity
• Full back-office: intake, marketing, case management platform, paralegal support, IT, IOLTA, billing. Support in everything you could need to be successful and grow the practice with us.

If you work in employment law and want to be part of the most ambitious firm in the nation, apply.
