Most firms talk a good game when it comes to work-life balance, but the reality can be different. Not at this firm. They've built a genuine culture around having balance, to the point where their billable hour requirement is 1650. That's not a typo. The firm is busy with a docket of transportation and trucking defense cases, and is looking to hire a litigation attorney with 4-7 years of experience. It's the type of firm that doesn't shy away from trials. They've been successfully defending trucking companies and insurers in state and federal courts for over 20 years. You'll be leading depositions, hearings, and arguing motions in court ... not just drafting and handing off to seniors. So if meaningful responsibility seems out of reach at your current firm, it won't be here. And importantly, this firm is looking for someone who wants to grow with them. There's a clear path for the right associate to take ownership and eventually lead the trucking practice, rather than staying permanently in a supporting role. Compensation & Benefits Base salary up to $170,000 100% of healthcare costs paid by the firm Hybrid working available after an initial orientation period PTO 401(k) with firm match This is an ideal role for a litigation associate who enjoys complex liability work, wants hands-on courtroom experience, and sees themselves becoming a practice leader. Interested in learning more? If you have litigation experience - trucking or complex liability is a plus- and are admitted in Texas, I'd be happy to talk. - How to apply: Just hit the apply button and I'll be in touch. Prefer to have a call first? Just call me on ************. You can also find me on LinkedIn. I'm Joel Stevenson, a legal recruiter at Distinct North America.

You're a junior attorney in your first few years of practice. Probably at a BigLaw firm. You enjoy handling commercial litigation but feel like your classmates who joined mid-sized and boutique firms are getting more substantive experience. Taking depositions. Arguing motions in court. Trial experience. They're years ahead of you at this rate. The senior attorneys and partners at your firm always seem to step in when things get juicy. So back to doc review and drafting motions and memos it is. This position is different. We're helping a Dallas-based boutique hire a junior Commercial Litigation Attorney, and this firm is built around early responsibility. Junior associates take on real responsibility early here, such as leading depositions in their first year. You'll be joining a busy commercial litigation team handling complex matters. The firm represents Fortune 500 companies, small businesses, and startups, giving you exposure to a wide range of clients and disputes. It's the kind of firm former BigLaw attorneys come to for substantive work, reasonable hours, and a genuinely relaxed culture. On average, associates are considered for partnership within five years. Salary is between $170-190k depending on experience. Interested in finding out more? If you have 1-3 years of commercial litigation experience and are barred in Texas, I'd love to talk. - How to apply: Just hit the apply button and I'll be in touch. Prefer to have a call first?
