Job description

Sophisticated litigation. Great people. Better work-life balance.

A prestigious Top Am Law 100 firm is seeking an experienced litigation attorney to join its highly regarded Products and Mass Tort Litigation team in Houston.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an attorney who enjoys sophisticated, high-stakes litigation but is looking for a more sustainable work-life balance without sacrificing the quality of their practice or the caliber of their colleagues.

Known for its collaborative culture, exceptional attorneys, and supportive team environment, this firm offers the opportunity to work on complex matters alongside talented litigators in a dynamic, fast-paced practice.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• 1,500 annual billable hour expectation – A refreshing alternative to the traditional BigLaw billable requirements.
• Top Am Law 100 platform – Continue working on sophisticated litigation matters at a nationally respected firm.
• Outstanding culture and team – Join a collegial, collaborative group of attorneys who genuinely enjoy working together.
• Greater work-life balance – An attractive opportunity for experienced attorneys balancing family commitments or simply seeking a more manageable schedule.
• Benefits-eligible position – A non-partnership track staff attorney role offering the opportunity to build a long-term career without the traditional partnership pressures.

Ideal Candidate

• At least 5 years of litigation experience.
• Experience managing mass tort and/or toxic tort dockets.
• Experience practicing in both Texas state and federal courts.
• Strong litigation, case management, and organizational skills.

You don't have to leave BigLaw to find better balance.
