Associate Litigation Attorney

$110k - $135k

Southwest Litigation Firm

Job Description

Job Description

About the Opportunity

We are expanding our civil litigation team and are hiring Arizona-licensed attorneys. This is an opportunity for attorneys who want to litigate, not spectate — you will handle real hearings, draft substantive motions, work directly with clients, and build a portfolio of meaningful litigation experience starting the day you join the team!

Whether you have a few years of practice or are newly barred, this role offers an accelerated path to becoming a seasoned litigator.

What Makes This Role Stand Out

*** Immediate courtroom and motion practice — real hearings, real cases, real responsibility

*** Fast-paced litigation development — learn dispositive motions, depositions, mediations, arbitrations, trial skills

*** Mentorship that actually accelerates your growth — hands-on training and continuous feedback

*** Structured workflow & autonomy — we don’t micromanage; we train you, trust you, and let you take ownership

*** A collaborative team culture — motivated litigators who help each other win

*** Career growth built in — strong performers advance quickly and take on leadership roles

*** Substantive writing practice — MSJs, MTDs, discovery motions, evidentiary workups, and more

*** Litigation experience that builds a real career — not back-office work, not doc review

If you want to be a confident, capable litigator, this is the job.

Compensation

  • Base Annual Salary: $110,000-$135,000
  • Monthly Bonus: $1,000 monthly incentive-based bonus (most attorneys achieve the monthly standard while maintaining a regular work schedule)
  • Annual Bonus:  Unlimited potential depending on the Firm's performance and your contribution to success. In many cases, an Associate can earn a bonus over $20,000 at the end of their first year!
  • Regular Raises:  Each associate is periodically evaluated and transparently informed of the Firm's criteria and the Associate's eligibility for a raise. 
  • Monthly Retirement Plan Contribution:  With no contribution requirement from the Associate, the Firm contributes $750 to the Associate's pension each month.
  • The opportunities at a growing firm are endless!

Who Should Apply

We welcome:

  • Attorneys who WANT TO LITIGATE
  • Recent bar passers
  • Judicial law clerks seeking direct courtroom experience
  • Associates in other practice areas (family, corporate, criminal, immigration, debtor's rights, HOA, real estate, etc.) looking to pivot into full-time litigation

Most importantly:

You should want to grow, take ownership, and get into litigating early and often.

Practice Areas You’ll Touch

We handle a wide variety of civil litigation , including:

  • Tort and personal-injury
  • Property and contract disputes
  • Business and commercial litigation
  • Premises cases
  • Construction-related matters
  • Medical Malpractice
  • General civil disputes
  • Pre-lawsuit investigations
  • Discovery practice, hearings, and trial

Requirements

  • Licensed and in good standing in Arizona
  • Independent, curious, and most importantly, WANT TO LITIGATE

Benefits:

  • Dental insurance
  • Health insurance
  • Vision insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Professional development 
  • Licensing and fees
  • Retirement plan

Work Location: Preferred in-office/flexible depending on performance
