Job description

We are a growing, multi-state law firm seeking a Litigation Attorney (3+ years) to handle family law and/or civil litigation matters in Central Illinois (Peoria, Bloomington, Champaign, Springfield).

This is a primarily remote position — you’ll work from home with in‑person court appearances 2–3 times per week.

Compensation & Benefits

• $100,000 – $150,000 base salary, depending on experience and production
• Comp tied to your chosen billable target (you control your pace and earnings)
• 10% origination bonus on collected revenue
• 20% bonus on billing over target
• Health insurance (50% employer‑paid)
• 401(k) with 3% employer contribution
• 15 days PTO
• Flexible schedule
• Professional development support

Why This Role Stands Out

• Set your own billable target — control your workload and income
• Consistent case flow — no requirement to generate business
• Remote flexibility with local courtroom practice
• Mentorship and support — ramp up with experienced attorneys, not sink‑or‑swim
• Full support staff so you can focus on legal work

What You’ll Do

• Handle a caseload of family law and/or civil litigation matters based on your experience
• Attend court hearings in Central Illinois (approx. 2–3 times per week)
• Manage cases with support from paralegals and senior attorneys
• Gradually take on more independence as you grow in the role

Who We’re Looking For

• Experience or an interest in family law and/or civil litigation
• Licensed in Illinois (or pending admission)
• Comfortable handling cases with guidance and growing into independence
• Strong communication and organizational skills

About Us

We are a fast‑growing firm with a collaborative, supportive culture. Our attorneys work across multiple practice areas with strong operational support, allowing them to focus on practicing law while maintaining flexibility and balance.
