Associate Attorney

The Watkins Firm, APC

Overview Employment Litigation Attorney (2+ Years) | Grow Your Practice, Not Just Your Hours We’re looking for a litigation attorney with at least 2 years of employment law experience who is eager to grow—professionally, intellectually, and eventually in their own client base. This role is built for an attorney who wants more than back-office research or being shielded from clients. If you want to talk to clients, take ownership of cases, go to trial and build real relationships, keep reading. Why This Role Stands Out This is not a “stay in your lane and bill quietly” position. We are intentionally developing our next generation of client-facing attorneys and giving them room to grow into trusted advisors. You’ll work directly with experienced litigators while also: Speaking with clients early and often Taking increasing responsibility over strategy and case management Learning how to develop and retain business (with guidance—not pressure) Practice Focus Exposure to wage & hour, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and related claims Opportunity to assist with other practice areas at the firm including business & real property disputes. What You’ll Get Real mentorship and hands-on training Direct client interaction (not years down the road—now) A path to developing your own book of business over time Support, structure, and feedback to help you grow confidently A law firm environment that values curiosity, initiative, and communication skills Who We’re Looking For 2+ years of employment litigation experience Prior law firm experience (this is essential) Strong written and verbal communication skills Someone who enjoys talking to people—not just writing briefs A motivated attorney who sees client development as a skill to learn, not a mystery The Right Fit This role is ideal for an attorney who: Wants to grow into a long-term career, not just a title Is excited by responsibility and learning Wants exposure to how law firms actually grow and sustain practices #J-18808-Ljbffr
