Trial Attorney – Help Build California’s Next Leading Criminal Defense Firm | Los Angeles, CA

Michael and Associates is a new type of criminal defense firm seeking a senior Criminal Defense Attorney.

We’re not your run-of-the-mill criminal defense practice, and our ambitions aren’t small. In fact, our goal is to be the largest criminal defense firm in Texas within three years.

We’re taking best practices of the world’s leading tech companies and applying them to the legal profession to create a criminal defense firm unlike any other.

That's right, in addition to providing top-notch legal services, we're developing advanced expertise in things such as digital marketing, process automation, and hiring practices. We believe this enables us to provide a whole new level of client experience, while becoming one of the largest criminal defense firms in the country.

Since opening, our phones have been ringing off the hooks, and we are on track to have hundreds of cases by year’s end.

What makes this job so great?

1) Early Role at a Growing Firm: We’re already on track to become one of the largest criminal defense firms in Texas, and 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.

2) Personal Growth: Let’s face it, 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. And speaking of how we do things differently…

3) A Forward-Thinking Firm: Let’s be honest, the legal profession isn’t exactly what you think of when you hear “cutting edge”. 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.

4) We Play as a Team: When a client hires us, they get the force of the full firm. There are no lone wolves here. We believe teamwork not only leads to a better work environment, but better outcomes for our clients.

5) 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.

And it doesn’t stop with just defending clients; we promise to provide high-touch, white glove service from start to finish, and make this a stress-free experience.

To sum it up, if you’re an ambitious lawyer looking to help redefine the criminal defense field, we’d love to talk.

PS: Not the job you’re looking for? Tell your friends! We offer a $5,000 referral fee to anybody who refers a candidate that we hire (with some stipulations of course).

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.
