GreatLaw, a small but mighty Houston-area law firm that takes pride in its work-life balance, is seeking to add Partner/Senior Counsel level lawyers to its Corporate/Transactional team with small, medium or large books of portable business who may be overlooked/underappreciated in their current legal roles.
GreatLaw lawyers understand what it is like to work in BigLaw and other large law firms, because we have worked there too. We also understand that many lawyers with meaningful books of business aren't appreciated at these firms because their book is not meaningful in the eyes of their beholder.
GreatLaw is different.
- We have less overhead.
- We value a work-life balance and back that up by having substantially lower billing "requirements" than BigLaw.
- We encourage and value any origination.
- We are not a giant bureaucracy.
- We have prestigious clients that value our services.
Our ideal candidate:
- Has extensive experience in the corporate/transactional area
- Is a practical and personable advisor of clients.
- Is extremely well organized.
- Can balance our sometimes chaotic sense of fun and humor with the need to get things done when it's time for the rubber to hit the road.
- Has portable business stemming from long-standing relationships.
Requirements (please only apply if these are met):
- A minimum of 5 years experience.
- A minimum of $400,000 in portable business.
- Must be located in Houston, TX (or one of its 7,000 suburbs)
Benefits
- Fully-paid health, vision, and dental insurance for all employees (subject to plan requirements).
- 401(k) (subject to plan requirements).
- Paid vacation
