Senior Trial Attorney

Our client is seeking a Senior Trial Attorney to lead and expand a high-impact civil practice representing survivors of sexual abuse, assault, exploitation, trafficking, institutional misconduct, and related wrongdoing. This is a senior, partner-level role combining sophisticated litigation, compassionate client advocacy, practice leadership, and meaningful business-development opportunity. The ideal candidate is a formidable courtroom lawyer—often a former prosecutor or government trial attorney—who can translate major-crimes experience into plaintiff-side civil litigation. The firm offers a national platform, established infrastructure, active matters, and substantial financial upside. A respected solo practitioner or small firm interested in joining a larger platform may also be considered. Compensation: $200,000 Base + Origination & Performance Upside (OTE $500,000+) Key Responsibilities: Lead complex civil matters involving sexual abuse and assault, child exploitation, human trafficking, institutional liability, domestic violence-related claims, police misconduct, and related survivor claims. Direct matters from intake and investigation through pleadings, discovery, depositions, motion practice, mediation, settlement, and trial. Develop compelling case strategies involving difficult witnesses, sensitive evidence, experts, and serious-felony fact patterns. Represent survivors with empathy, discretion, and trauma-informed judgment while pursuing rigorous civil accountability. Provide senior litigation leadership, supervise case teams, and mentor attorneys and professional staff. Strengthen referral relationships with attorneys, prosecutors, judges, victim-services organizations, advocacy groups, hotlines, and community agencies. Help expand the firm’s Florida presence through thought leadership, professional education, public advocacy, and strategic relationship development. Qualifications: Active Florida Bar member in good standing. Significant first-chair jury-trial and courtroom experience, ideally developed within a State Attorney’s Office, Attorney General’s Office, U.S. Attorney’s Office, or a sophisticated trial practice. Experience handling high-stakes, sensitive matters involving victims, complex evidence, contested proceedings, and emotionally challenging facts. Strong judgment, leadership presence, written and oral advocacy, and the credibility to serve as a senior representative of the practice. Ability to work compassionately with survivors of trauma while maintaining clear professional boundaries and disciplined litigation strategy. Established Florida legal, prosecutorial, judicial, victim-advocacy, or community relationships—or a demonstrated ability to build trusted referral channels. Willingness to travel within Florida for client meetings, hearings, depositions, trials, and practice-development activity. #J-18808-Ljbffr SalesBountyHunter
