  • Provide Counsel: Help clients navigate their toughest chapters with results-driven, compassionate representation.

We value your expertise and compensate accordingly. We offer a "Big Law" structure with a "Boutique" focus on people.

  • Competitive Earnings: $75k – $130k Base + a bonus structure with $70k+ annual upside.
  • The Essentials: 401(k) with up to 5% company match. Affordable Medical, Dental, and Vision plans with Short/Long Term Disability and Voluntary Term Life Insurance.
  • Real Balance: PTO, company holidays, and an earned hybrid option designed to protect your work-life balance and mental health.
  • Real Support: A dedicated paralegal and billing coordinator assigned to your cases.
