Area Sales Manager

At Phillips Law, we defend people when everything is on the line.

The clients we serve are not planning for the future. They are facing charges, investigations, warrants, or life-altering allegations. They are scared. Their families are overwhelmed. Their freedom, reputation, career, and future are at risk.

We exist to stand between clients and the power of the State.

We are seeking a disciplined, emotionally intelligent professional who can sit across from individuals and families during some of the most stressful moments of their lives — and guide them toward decisive action.

This is not transactional sales.
This is crisis leadership with accountability.

You must be able to manage urgency without creating panic. You must be able to project confidence without arrogance. You must be able to help people move forward when fear is clouding their judgment.

This is a performance-based role.
We track metrics.
We expect professionalism.
We expect growth.

Compensation: High performers in this role realistically earn $60,000–$125,000 annually. $60,000 Base with Performance Bonus Up to $125,000.

Required Application Exercise — The Cost of Waiting

As part of your application, you must submit a short written story in a cover letter about an individual who delayed hiring a criminal defense attorney — and the consequences that followed.

You may base this on a real situation (without identifying details) or create a fictional client (recommended).

Write this in narrative format (not bullet points).

Your story should include:

1. Who They Were

• Stage of life
• Career or background
• Family situation

2. The Assumptions They Made

• What they believed about their case
• Why they delayed securing counsel

3. What Happened

• The triggering event (arrest, indictment, warrant, missed deadline, police interview, etc.)

4. The Impact

Describe consequences such as:

• Additional charges
• Lost leverage in negotiations
• Jail time that might have been avoided
• Financial strain
• Damage to reputation or career
• Emotional toll on family
• Outcomes that early legal representation could have prevented

Length: 300–700 words

Format: Narrative storytelling (not bullet points)

This exercise allows us to evaluate your judgment, emotional intelligence, and understanding of what is truly at stake in criminal defense.

This role is for professionals who want their work to matter.

You must care about performance.
You must care about improvement.
You must care about protecting people when the stakes are real.

If you are seeking comfort, this is not the right role.
If you are seeking growth, accountability, and meaningful impact — Phillips Law may be the place for you.
