Why This Is a Great Opportunity

  • Take meaningful ownership of cases while continuing to develop under experienced attorneys
  • Gain exposure to sophisticated corporate clients, insurance carriers, and risk management professionals
  • Build deeper experience with depositions, expert witnesses, litigation strategy, mediation, and trial preparation
  • Join a collaborative team that values intelligence, curiosity, coachability, and long-term professional growth
  • Develop toward greater responsibility and first-chair trial opportunities
  • Enjoy a hybrid schedule that combines in-person collaboration with work-from-home flexibility

Location: Hybrid in Southfield, Michigan, conveniently located near Detroit. Tuesday and Thursday are team-wide in-office days.

Note: Candidates must be licensed to practice law in Michigan and have at least 3+ years of directly relevant general civil liability litigation experience. We strongly prefer 5+ years, but will consider attorneys with 3+ years based on the sophistication of their work and demonstrated independence.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
