Overview
The organization is seeking highly entrepreneurial attorneys to join its team as partner-owners. This is not a traditional legal practice role. Instead, the opportunity focuses on building and leading your own business within the organization’s platform, developing client relationships, and being directly responsible for your own success.
As a Partner, you will co-own a platform operating company with its own P&L. With access to capital, national infrastructure, and a proven model, you will be provided resources and playbooks to grow your business.
Success in this performance-based role requires full-time professional focus; practicing law on the side or managing other work commitments is incompatible with the expectations of the opportunity.
