Why consider us?

We are a fast-growing national law firm devoted exclusively to helping clients solve problems involving the nation’s most complex and high-profile cases, primarily but not limited to maritime, energy, and/or transportation.

We are proud to be recognized for both the quality of our work and the opportunities for our associates to learn and grow. Our associates are uniquely positioned to have a significant impact on clients from day one while also gaining valuable experience and training. We believe that as an associate, you should have a path toward partnership, and our collective mentoring approach has resulted in a number of internally promoted partners.

You will excel in this role by:

  • Having 1-3 or more years of relevant experience in the energy, maritime, and/or transportation sector
  • Experience taking expert depositions, writing motions, arguing motions, and drafting complex case evaluations
  • Demonstrating exceptional writing, analytical, and advocacy skills and ability to successfully interact with clients and colleagues.
  • Adapting quickly in a dynamic, fast-paced work environment to successfully multi-task and manage deadlines to proactively complete transactions.
  • Having a high comfort level in working both independently as well as in a team environment.
  • Taking initiative by being action-oriented, immediately responsible for your client, delegating intelligently, and seeking opportunities for personal improvement.
  • Showing academic excellence and leadership, having achieved a law degree from an accredited law school.
  • Being admitted to practice in Louisiana

You will stand out from other candidates if you demonstrate some or all of the following:

  • Have excellent legal research and writing skills.
  • Have first or second chair trial experience.
  • Possess excellent communication and interpersonal skills and attentively listen, actively engage, and effectively communicate complex matters.
