Sr. Criminal Defense Attorney

Michael & Associates is doing things differently in the criminal defense space. Our goal is to become the first nationwide, recognized brand in Criminal Defense. And to be a firm where attorneys have opportunities for personal and career growth, all while providing top-tier defense and white glove service to our clients. Since opening in Texas almost 3 years ago, our phones have been ringing off the hooks, and we’ve quickly grown to become one of the largest firms in the state. So, if you’re a seasoned defense attorney with deep experience and are interested in being part of something new, this job might be for you. What makes this job so great? 1) Just be a Great Lawyer - Nothing Else: We didn’t go through three years of law school to be accountants, salespeople, marketers, collections specialists etc. We became lawyers because we wanted to fight for clients and win in the courtroom. We do everything we can to make sure you spend 100% of your time getting great outcomes for clients. How do we do this? Consider the following: On average, we have a ratio of 5 supporting roles per every trial attorney No client intake - we have specialists that handle this Every lawyer has a dedicated legal assistant. And that doesn't include a staff of legal assistants that handles specialty things like ALRs/ODLs or billing issues We even have specialists that handle ALR hearings We optimize case allocation based on drive time and specialization in counties Work from home (other than court): we'd prefer you spend the time fighting for clients over commuting 2) Personal Growth: Unfortunately, there really isn’t that much room for growth in the criminal defense field; the max responsibility you can ever hope for is to be a senior lawyer at a tiny firm. Yet every other type of law - corporate, litigation, personal injury - has massive firms with endless opportunities for advancement. Why not criminal defense? We’re creating a large firm where attorneys can grow, be challenged, enjoy their work and their coworkers. 3) Competitive Pay and Benefits: In addition to salary, we offer: Significant bonuses based on client satisfaction Work from Home (when not in court) Reimbursement for excess mileage 401k matching CLEs covered Bar dues covered 4) A Team of A+ Attorneys: Our bar for lawyers is high, and you won’t find any baby lawyers at Michael & Associates. We go through a rigorous recruiting process to hire only the top 10% of defense lawyers, all who have well over a decade of experience on average. You’ll have the chance to work with and learn from colleagues who are best in class attorneys. Additionally, when a client hires us, they get the force of the full firm. There are no lone wolves here. We believe that lawyers working together leads to a better work environment and better outcomes for our clients. 5) Early Role at a Growing Firm: We’re already a major player in Texas, but our ambitions are far bigger. We want to be the first nationwide brand in criminal defense. In this role, you’ll be getting in on the ground floor. You’ll have the chance to build something from scratch, versus just maintaining the status quo. 6) A Forward-Thinking Firm: When you hear “cutting edge”, the last thing you think of is the legal profession. We’re going to change that. We embrace technology and continuous improvement. We believe leveraging technology makes us more efficient and leads to better client service. 7) A Chance to Make a Difference: Every day, we are helping improve our clients’ lives in a big way. Just check out our Google reviews to see the stories. We are Zealous Advocates for our clients, always going the extra mile to get them the best outcome possible.
