Commercial Litigation Attorney
Distinct | North America
Litigation associate job in Dallas, TX
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.

This is a rare opportunity for a seasoned Personal Injury trial attorney to step into a true head-of-office leadership role-with real authority, real ownership, and real impact.
We're looking for a Managing Attorney who will serve as the senior legal and operational leader of a high-volume personal injury office. This role is for someone ready to lead people, make hard calls, and set the standard for how cases are handled and how teams perform.
If you're energized by responsibility-not just litigation-this role was built for you.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
You are the senior decision-maker for the office
Direct influence over case strategy, people, and processes
Trial-focused environment-cases are prepared, not parked
Leadership role with visibility and long-term growth
Competitive compensation and strong benefits
What You'll Own
Serve as Head of the Office, leading attorneys and support staff
Take final ownership of case strategy, valuation, settlements, and trial posture
Personally handle the firm's most complex and high-exposure PI cases
Establish clear expectations, workflows, and accountability across the team
Mentor attorneys and elevate trial readiness and performance

High standards for ethics, professionalism, and performance
Compensation & Bonus Structure
Base Salary: $175,000 - $250,000 (based on experience)
Performance Bonus:
Bonus eligibility begins once fees generated exceed 5× base salary
10% of all fees generated above that threshold are paid as a bonus
Bonus is calculated from the Managing Attorney's start date
This structure is designed to directly reward leadership, results, and growth, with no cap on upside
(Example: A $200K base salary becomes bonus-eligible after $1M in fees; the Managing Attorney earns 10% of all fees above that amount.)
Benefits
Medical, dental, and vision insurance
401(k) with company match
Paid time off and paid holidays

Associate Attorney (Trucking Defense)
Distinct | North America
Litigation associate job in Dallas, TX
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 litigationassociate 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.

You can also find me on LinkedIn. I'm Joel Stevenson, a legal recruiter at Distinct North America.
Interested, but feel like you don't tick every box? Just hit apply anyway. At worst, we'll have a good chat about your career aspirations and connect you with other great opportunities.
