Full Job Description
Description

Litigation Attorney (4-8 Years) - Path to Partnership

An established and growing full-service law firm in the Greater Cincinnati area is seeking an Associate Attorney to join our team of six attorneys. We provide high-quality legal representation across a broad range of practice areas, including:
  • Family Law
  • Criminal Defense & Traffic Matters
  • Estate Planning & Probate
  • Debtor Bankruptcy
  • Personal Injury
  • Small Business Representation
  • Civil Litigation


Our main office is located in downtown Cincinnati, with satellite offices in West Chester, Beechmont, Ohio, and Florence, Kentucky.

Who We're Looking For

You are 3-10 years in, you can run a case from intake through trial, and you would rather control your own destiny than spend another decade grinding for someone else's partnership. You are licensed in Ohio (Kentucky a plus). Litigation is your home base; we will give you room to work across our other practice areas as your interests run.

Why This Seat Is Different
  • A real path to partnership and ownership - we are building the next generation of this firm.
  • Eat what you kill. Competitive base salary plus origination incentives - you share in what you bring in and collect. We market for the firm; we will also reward you for building your own book.
  • Mentorship from seasoned trial lawyers and the autonomy to run your own matters.
  • The platform is already built - malpractice coverage, experienced legal and administrative staff, offices and IT, marketing and web presence, parking, etc. You focus on practicing law.
  • Open to a lateral with a book of business, or a potential merger, for the right attorney.


Responsibilities

About the Position

We are looking for an attorney who is committed to excellent client service and interested in helping grow an expanding practice area. The ideal candidate will be licensed to practice law in Ohio and Kentucky or be eligible and willing to obtain Kentucky licensure in the near future.

Depending on your experience and interests, your practice may also include handling matters in several of our other areas of law.

Qualifications
• Active Ohio law license required
• Kentucky law license preferred (or ability to obtain licensure)
• Strong work ethic and professional demeanor
• Excellent client communication and relationship-building skills
• Organized with exceptional attention to detail
• Ability and willingness to appear in courts throughout Southwestern Ohio and Northern Kentucky
