Location:- Houston, TX (Hybrid)
Are you a litigator who thrives in the courtroom rather than just the library? We are representing a premier, "Trial-First" Texas defense firm that is expanding its Houston footprint. Known for handling high-stakes, "bet-the-company" litigation and catastrophic injury defense, this firm offers the sophisticated work of a national powerhouse with the agile, collaborative culture of a specialized boutique.

• Conduct depositions, attend hearings, and participate in trials.
• Collaborate directly with Senior Partners who emphasize mentorship and professional development.

Benefits
The Company offers the following benefits for this position, subject to applicable eligibility requirements:
