Who This Is For

The firm welcomes attorneys from AmLaw firms, respected regional firms, boutiques, in-house roles, and government positions who are ready for partnership and value autonomy.

The Ideal Candidate Will Have The Following Qualifications

• Construction law experience representing design professionals (architects, engineers, surveyors, etc.) against claims of professional negligence
• Litigation generally involves contract claims over design changes alleged to have caused additional cost and/or delay in schedule, with some construction defect and bodily injury/wrongful death
• Mix of pre-trial workup (substantive/contentious motion practice/discovery, working closely with expert witnesses) and trial experience (federal, state, or tribal court, and/or arbitration)
• Pratean mind
• Experience working with insurance carriers and coverage experience is a plus
• Prior experience at an AmLaw 200, Law360 400, respected regional or sophisticated boutique firm (5 years out or more)
• A minimum portable book of $350K is preferred, but not required

Location Flexibility

While the firm operates on a national platform, attorneys must be able to appear in court or before agencies in their licensed jurisdictions when required.

Compensation And Benefits

• Compensation Structure: Partners are compensated under a performance-based Eat What You Kill model tied to fees actually collected by the firm. 30% of collected fees on matters the Partner originates; plus 50% of collected fees attributable to the Partner’s personal time worked. Where a Partner both originates and performs work on a matter, both components apply. Compensation varies based on origination volume, hours worked, billing rates, realization, and collections. There is no cap on earning potential.
• Good-faith estimated annual compensation range: $150,000 to $2,500,000+, depending on individual performance and practice economics.
• Benefits: Partners may elect from tiered benefit options made available by the firm. Available offerings vary by tier and location and may include access to group insurance programs, retirement savings options, professional liability coverage, and firm-provided operational and administrative support.
