Are you the trusted advisor, confidant, and friend of your client? Are you ready to make your mark on an organization and join a partnership track? The firm is looking for a passionate, energetic senior associate to help us continue to revolutionize the legal industry. If you're someone who thrives in fast-paced, client-focused environments and is eager to tackle diverse legal challenges, this is your chance to join a team that’s making a real difference. If you want to hear from your clients what we hear from ours – that they love us and hiring us was their single best business decision – this firm is for you.

What We’re Looking For

• Passion & Drive : You love the law and are excited to grow with us as we continue to expand. You understand how to show clients that you love them.
• Client-Centered : You communicate with clients clearly and effectively - no jargon, just solutions. You are thoughtful in your approach to helping them achieve their goals.
• Adaptable & Self-Motivated : You thrive in a dynamic environment, balancing multiple priorities and taking ownership of your work.
• Collaborative Spirit : You work well with a team, sharing knowledge and working together to get the best results.
• Creative Problem Solver : You're ready to expand your skills into new practice areas and think outside the box.

What We Offer

• Growth & Opportunity : Expand your practice across multiple areas, from employment to IP to corporate law, and collaborate with a team that’s redefining client service.
• Competitive Compensation : If you bring a book of business or develop one here, you will enjoy a competitive base salary and 15% revenue share on the clients you generate - forever (for as long as they are a client).
• Culture : A tight-knit team that celebrates innovation and collaboration. You won’t just be another attorney—you’ll be a key player in shaping our future.

What Makes Us Different that Sets You Up for Greater Success:

• Practical and Strategic: We are not just attorneys. We are individuals with an entrepreneurial spirit who understand business, and we limit our advice to what is practical and achievable for clients.
• Business Acumen: The billable hour is a mirage. We offer flat-fee and retainer-based arrangements, allowing us to be unbound by the clock. In certain instances, we offer flat-fee arrangements and retainer-based billing in litigation.
• Business Development: We value the special skills required to excel at business development, and we provide unparalleled support to help you achieve our business development goals.

Preferred Attributes

• Entrepreneurial mindset with comfort operating in a small, resource-efficient environment.
• Ability to work as a team- We really mean that.
• Book of business
• Strong business acumen and ability to collaborate with non-legal leadership
• Practical, solution-oriented approach rather than academic legalism.
• Good communication skills

Step into a modern legal practice where innovation replaces red tape, and your legal judgment-not the billable hour-defines your value
