Build Your Next Chapter with a Litigation Firm That Invests in Long-Term Success

If you're an experienced litigator looking for more than just your next job, this is an opportunity to join a respected Colorado litigation firm that values exceptional legal work, collaborative relationships, and long-term career growth.

For decades, our firm has built a strong reputation throughout the Denver Metro area by delivering outstanding representation to businesses, insurance carriers, and professionals across a wide range of civil litigation matters. Our attorneys enjoy meaningful work, a supportive team, and a culture where people stay because they are respected, challenged, and given opportunities to grow.

We're looking for an experienced litigation attorney who enjoys handling complex cases, thrives in the courtroom, and is interested in becoming an integral part of the firm's future. This position is designed for someone who wants to build a long-term career, with a clear opportunity to advance toward partnership within the next one to two years.

Whether you're currently practicing with another defense firm or operating your own practice and looking for greater support and resources, we'd love to meet you.

We offer a career built for LONG-TERM SUCCESS:

• Clear Partnership Track – Opportunity to advance toward partnership within 1–2 years based on performance.
• No Formal Billable Hour Requirement – Focus on delivering exceptional client service rather than meeting arbitrary quotas.
• Manageable Caseload – Attorneys typically handle an average of 20 active cases, allowing for quality advocacy and work-life balance.

You'll represent clients in a variety of sophisticated civil litigation matters, including:

• Professional Liability
• Insurance Defense
• Personal Injury & Motor Vehicle Defense
• Construction Litigation
• Employment Law Defense
• Commercial Litigation
• Class Action Defense
• Appellate Matters

What You'll Do

You'll independently manage litigation matters from inception through resolution while collaborating with attorneys, staff, clients, insurance carriers, and experts.

Responsibilities include:

• Managing cases through every stage of litigation, including trial when necessary
• Developing litigation strategy and advising clients
• Drafting pleadings, motions, briefs, and other legal documents
• Conducting legal research and preparing persuasive written work product
• Taking and defending depositions
• Appearing at hearings, mediations, arbitrations, and trials
• Managing discovery and coordinating expert witnesses
• Maintaining client communication and providing timely case updates

The ideal attorney has:

• Experience managing the full litigation lifecycle

• Prior trial experience
• The ability to independently manage a litigation caseload
• Experience in insurance defense and civil litigation
• Knowledge of insurance carrier reporting requirements, litigation guidelines, and task-based billing
• Excellent communication and client relationship skills
• Active Colorado Bar admission (or the ability to obtain admission)

Years of experience matter less than your ability to confidently handle litigation and produce outstanding work.

Who Thrives Here

Our most successful attorneys are:

• Passionate about litigation
• Self-motivated and proactive
• Committed to producing exceptional work
• Responsive to clients and colleagues
• Team-oriented and respectful
• Interested in building a long-term future with the firm

We're looking for someone who wants to become part of our leadership—not someone looking for a temporary contract role.
