Senior Attorney (Sexual Abuse)

10X Recruitment

Job Description

Job Description

Practice Lead Attorney — Sexual Abuse Litigation
Seattle, WA · Remote considered · Full-time · Confidential search

About the opportunity

Our client, an established plaintiff trial firm, is building its Washington sexual abuse practice and is hiring the attorney who will lead it. This is a practice to own, not a docket to service.

The firm is already litigating abuse cases in Washington. This role exists to take that work over and grow it — with full autonomy, a partnership track, and the firm's intention to make this person the public face of the practice.

What you'll do

  • Lead the firm's Washington sexual abuse practice, with autonomy over case strategy, case selection, and staffing
  • Represent survivors in civil claims against institutional defendants — school districts, foster care and child welfare agencies, hospitality brands, youth and religious organizations
  • Own your files end to end: case evaluation, discovery, expert work, depositions, motion practice, mediation, and trial
  • Work with survivors in a trauma-informed way, with the support and pacing that requires
  • Grow the practice and, over time, the team around it

What we're looking for

  • Prosecutorial background strongly preferred — former federal prosecutor (AUSA or DOJ) or former state prosecutor/ADA with sex crimes experience
  • 2–3+ years litigating civil sexual abuse lawsuits
  • Demonstrated courtroom ability — trials, arbitrations, or contested hearings you first-chaired
  • Admitted in Washington, or eligible and willing to be admitted
  • The judgment and steadiness this practice area demands

A plus

  • Hotel sex trafficking claims (TVPRA / 18 U.S.C. § 1595)
  • School abuse claims, public or private
  • Foster care and child welfare abuse claims

What's on offer

  • A leadership role with genuine autonomy and a partnership track
  • An existing caseload from day one — you are not building from zero
  • No book of business required. Our client does not want portables and will not poach cases
  • The option to bring your paralegal or assistant with you
  • Remote genuinely considered, including Washington-licensed attorneys based in California or Oregon. Seattle metro preferred with periodic office presence
