A bit about us:

A well-established, full-service regional law firm is seeking a mid-level Associate to join its litigation team, focusing on general liability and insurance defense matters.

Why join us?

Our client is a well-established, full-service law firm with multiple offices across Texas, known for a broad commercial practice spanning litigation, corporate, real estate, and specialty practice areas. Built over decades as a trusted partner to businesses, financial institutions, and insurers across the state, we combine the depth of a larger firm with a collaborative, team-oriented culture.

Substantive litigation work: real ownership of matters, not just support work, with genuine trial and deposition exposure

Strong institutional platform: established client relationships and a well-regarded regional brand, without the bureaucracy of a mega-firm

Collaborative culture: work alongside experienced litigators in a supportive team environment rather than being siloed

Competitive compensation and benefits: market-competitive salary, performance-based bonus potential, and a comprehensive benefits package

Growth trajectory: a firm that invests in developing associates toward long-term partnership-track careers
