What are the responsibilities and job description for the Associate Attorney position at Doucet Co., LPA?
Are you an experienced litigation lawyer looking for a fast track to ownership equity? Can you effectively manage 30 litigation/business matters at one time while meeting client expectations?
Our law firm provides legal services to clients facing tough legal situations, such as foreclosure, a lawsuit against their business, or serious injuries. Our clients want a positive resolution as a result of putting up a fight in court. We mainly represent people and small business owners.
We're looking for a lawyer who has experience litigating cases but needs a change. That could be moving away from 60-hour work weeks, more work-life balance, or a change of practice area or environment. The lawyer must know how to litigate a case from start to finish. This lawyer can expect to have a trial once every year or so.
The majority shareholder is transitioning ownership to the lawyers who work at the firm as he moves into a full-time technology venture, and that can include you. If you put in the work, take care of your customers, and work well with the team, expect ownership interest in a fraction of the time you would normally expect.
The ideal candidate will have a can-do attitude, be able to work autonomously, and be a team player. They must have litigation experience.
