Job description

I'm working directly with the named partners of a highly regarded Fort Worth boutique looking to add a mid-level Litigation Associate as the office continues to grow.

3–6 years of litigation experience

No billable hour requirement

$140K+ base + meaningful mid-year and year-end bonuses

1/3 of their actual collections

Direct mentorship from former AmLaw partners

Genuinely family-friendly + reasonable/flexible in-office culture

For context on compensation: one associate at a $140K base is projected to take home approximately $190K this year

They're looking for someone with a strong mix of litigation experience — ideally including commercial matters — from an AmLaw firm, reputable mid-market firm, or boutique. Experience matters more than a perfect transcript.

Texas Bar required. Relocation candidates with a genuine interest in Fort Worth are absolutely welcome.

This could also be particularly interesting for a more experienced litigator who wants to keep doing sophisticated work without the traditional BigLaw hours model.

If Fort Worth is home — or you'd like it to be — message me.
