A role designed around litigation, not diluted by everything else.
At most family law firms, one attorney does everything: drafts, consults, litigates, and manages clients. We’ve built a different model. Here, the litigation attorney argues and advocates. Drafting, intake, and client communication are handled by other dedicated team members.
When you walk into a hearing, you walk in ready.
When you walk out, you don’t go back to the office with 40 drafts waiting for your review.
We represent women going through divorce. We help them plan, prepare, and find their way to a brighter future. Our team reflects the mission — you won’t be the only woman in the room here.
What you’ll do
- Argue contested hearings, temporary orders, and trials
- Lead adversarial negotiations
- Oversee trial strategy and take over when mediation fails
- Take depositions and prepare witnesses
- Review and revise motions and responses drafted by the drafting team
- Guide clients through testimony and court appearances with trauma-informed care
What you won’t do
- Draft premarital agreements, modifications, or final decrees (our non-litigation attorney owns that work)
- Run initial consultations or intake calls (our sales team handles it)
- Build your own exhibit binders or trial notebooks (your paralegal does that)
- Spend nights and weekends catching up on drafting projects (the drafting team is on it)
- Daily management of emotional clients (our support team handles that)
Compensation and benefits
- Base salary: $140,000-$200,000, for more experienced or board certified attorneys
- For less experienced attorneys, the base salary is lower but scalable as you develop your skills
- Bonus structure: performance bonus on collected revenue above target + 10% origination on cases you bring
- Health, dental, vision (50% premiums, after 30 days)
- 401(k) with 3% match after one year
- PTO, WFH flexibility
- Paid bar dues, CLE, firm retreats
- Woman-led firm with female team advocating for female clientele
- Professional growth and opportunities for leadership, including partnership track
What we look for
- Active Texas Bar OR documented reciprocity in progress
- 3+ years family law litigation OR 5+ years civil litigation with demonstrated family law pivot (this is not for someone who thinks family law “might be a good fit”)
- Board Certification in family law and/or trial practice is a plus
- Courtroom experience — contested hearings and/or trials with history of successful outcomes and satisfied clients
- Strong understanding of civil procedure and family law specific trial deadlines
- Strong cognitive and emotional fluency
- A person who has opinions, tells the truth, and does great work
- Endorsements from clients and trusted professionals
