Job description

A national litigation firm with over 100 attorneys across the country is looking to add a Civil Litigation Attorney to its Dallas office.

You’ll be joining a general liability and casualty defense group that represents Fortune 500 clients across energy, construction, manufacturing, transportation, and insurance industries.

You’ll manage your own caseload from intake through resolution, in both state and federal court. That means drafting pleadings and motions, coordinating with expert witnesses, attending depositions, hearings and mediations, and getting real trial preparation and attendance under your belt.

You’ll work closely with experienced attorneys and clients on substantive matters, with genuine opportunities to develop your practice early rather than waiting years for responsibility to trickle down.

Hybrid working is built in, so you can manage a strong caseload without sacrificing flexibility.

If you want a busy, sophisticated litigation docket paired with real client contact and courtroom exposure, this is worth a conversation.

• Active bar license in Texas
• 3-5 years of civil litigation experience in state and federal court
