Litigation Associate Attorney
West & Dunn
Job description: Look, we get it. Litigation is tough. Clients are demanding. Partners are... well, partners. But it doesn't have to be soul-crushing. Come work with us and rediscover the joy of lawyering. We have interesting cases, a supportive team, and a firm belief that happy lawyers make better lawyers (and less grumpy humans).
Who we are: West & Dunn is a Wisconsin-based law firm with civil litigation, business transactions, criminal defense, and veterans disability practices. We represent clients of all kinds, with a particular focus on veterans of the United States Armed Services. Our litigation work spans every state and federal court in Wisconsin, plus other jurisdictions when client needs require it. We have also invested seriously in modern legal technology, including AI tooling, and we expect our attorneys to use it thoughtfully.
Who you are: A Wisconsin-admitted attorney with at least five years of state and federal civil litigation experience. We want someone with trial and deposition experience, strong writing, and excellent communication habits. A willingness to spend time at happy hour with the team doesn't hurt. A modest book of business is helpful but not required.
Expectations:
- Management of routine civil litigation matters with limited oversight
- Team contribution on more complicated civil litigation matters
- Mentorship and leadership of junior associates
- 1,600 hours per year
Qualifications:
- Admitted to practice in Wisconsin state and federal courts
- Five years of civil litigation experience
- Excellent writing skills
Location: Waunakee, WI
Benefits: PTO, 401(k) with matching, HRA, bar dues, CLE, origination bonuses, cell plan
