Job Description

About JWL International Law Firm

Most law firms reward hours. We reward outcomes.

JWL International is a modern, business-driven law firm serving clients on five continents, including global leaders like Hitachi and Hyundai, as well as hundreds of manufacturers, dealers, and service providers worldwide. Founded by James Waite, author of the American Rental Association’s Guide to Rental Contracts, JWL blends sophisticated legal counsel with strategic business insight.

Our attorneys don’t grind through quotas or layers of hierarchy; they build practices, lead clients, and shape the firm’s future. JWL is redefining what it means to practice law: agile, entrepreneurial, and focused on measurable results.

Why Join JWL

  • Entrepreneurial freedom — build your own practice and make decisions without bureaucracy.
  • No billable-hour grind — focus on value and outcomes, not time sheets.
  • Hybrid flexibility — work how and where you perform best; results matter more than presence.
  • Compensation — extremely competitive, performance-based pay with no upper limit.
  • If you deliver more, you earn more. We align pay with impact so top performers are rewarded accordingly.
  • Direct client access — manage relationships directly and see the impact of your work.
  • Business-minded culture — collaborate with attorneys who think like executives and dealmakers.
  • Global reach — serve clients on five continents and engage in complex cross-border work.
  • Mentorship & leadership — work directly with James Waite and nationally recognized attorneys.
  • High-value deal flow — handle sophisticated, ongoing commercial and transactional matters.
  • Efficient infrastructure — modern systems and real support so you can focus on practicing law.
  • Growth & equity potential — real opportunities for leadership, profit participation, and ownership as JWL expands.

Who We’re Looking For

JWL is hiring both junior and senior-level attorneys who are active, in good standing, and licensed to practice in Georgia, Colorado, Texas, Tennessee, Washtington D.C., Brazil and the United Kingdom. 

  • Junior Attorneys: Ambitious, business-minded professionals seeking meaningful work, direct mentorship, and rapid growth.
  • Senior Attorneys: Accomplished practitioners ready to lead, expand their book of business, and enjoy true autonomy in a collaborative, results-driven environment.

Preferred experience or interest in:

  • Transactional / Corporate Law
  • Equipment & Automotive Sales or Leasing
  • Employment / Labor
  • Real Estate / Land Use
  • Government & Regulatory Compliance

We’re looking for practical, entrepreneurial lawyers who want to own their results — not just report their hours.
