No formal cover letter needed—we want to hear the real you.

Compensation:

$10,800+ per month based on experience and performance


Responsibilities:

What You Will Be Doing

  • Represent clients in court: hearings, trials, and negotiations
  • Manage your own caseload from start to finish—with backup when needed
  • Draft persuasive motions and prepare compelling legal defenses
  • Collaborate directly with firm leadership on case strategy
  • Maintain clear, professional communication with clients, courts, and staff

Qualifications:
  • Fluent in Spanish (Required)
  • 2–5 years of experience in criminal defense
  • Proven trial experience—you’ve led or co-led courtroom trials
  • Active California Bar license in good standing
  • Strong advocacy, communication, and strategic thinking skills
