Job Description
Are you a leader and ready to be challenged on a daily basis? Are you wanting the best legal training in the country? Do you want litigation experience right away?
Mutrux Firm, LLC is ideally looking for a Litigation Associate who has Personal Injury and Workers' Compensation experience. We have 2 physical locations, one in St. Louis and one in Columbia, MO. This would be a hybrid position with work from home as an option, as appearances allow.
Preference to attorneys licensed in Missouri, Illinois, Arizona, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Kansas.
The attributes we are looking for in an associate include optimism, grit, and the desire to be great at your job. We only do contingent fee injury work.
