We enjoy what we do — and we get it done! And we are on the hunt for another exceptional Associate Attorney to join our growing and amazing team!
What We Are Looking For:
While our core focus is criminal defense, we are also open to attorneys who can help us expand further into restraining orders, family law, immigration. If you’re passionate about criminal law, great. If you bring additional practice area experience, even better — we are looking to grow our reach and impact. We also handle many restraining orders.
