Litigation Associate Attorney

Litigation Associate Attorney

$95000 - $135000 per year | San Antonio, TX | Hybrid | Permanent

A bit about us:

Our client is a boutique litigation firm in North Central San Antonio, led by a seasoned trial attorney who built his practice at one of the city's well-established litigation firms before opening his own. The firm keeps a deliberately small, close-knit team (the founding attorney, one associate, and three support staff), so every attorney gets meaningful work, direct access to leadership, and real responsibility from day one.

The firm handles a diverse civil docket that includes business litigation, construction disputes, and personal injury on both the plaintiff and defense sides. That range gives attorneys exposure to different clients, strategies, and courtrooms without being boxed into one practice area. The founding attorney is known for his investment in mentoring and genuinely enjoys developing younger lawyers into confident, well-rounded litigators.
