Job Description:

We are seeking an attorney to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have some experience in criminal defense, either as an attorney or as a law clerk. We do not have a particular experience level in mind for this role. We are open to visiting with entry level attorneys or more experienced attorneys. We are more concerned with the right cultural fit than a particular experience level.

Preside over paralegals, administrative assistants in connection with keeping track of time records, reviewing client billing, setting up client meetings and completing client projects

About Company:
We have locations in Little Rock, Cabot, and Searcy. This position can be based out of Little Rock or Searcy. We are also set up for employees to work from home, which can be an option after you have proven yourself.



We pride ourselves on our culture. We do serious work for our clients, but we like to have fun while we do it. We believe in family first. We don't believe in working nights or weekends, which only happen rarely. If you have a personal situation where you need some flexibility with your hours, we will be a great fit for you. We are only concerned with the service to our clients, not the specific hours spent in your chair.



Our main practice area is criminal defense. We do some family law like adoption and guardianship, but we no longer handle divorces. We also handle estate planning and select civil litigation cases.
