About the Opportunity

HireNow Staffing is actively recruiting attorneys completing judicial clerkships who are ready to transition into private practice with a nationally recognized litigation team. This is an exceptional career move for attorneys who want to leverage their clerkship experience and join a firm highly regarded for its trial work, appellate advocacy, class action defense, and white-collar litigation.

This opportunity offers competitive compensation, structured growth, and the chance to practice alongside some of the most respected trial and appellate lawyers in the country.

What You'll Do

As a Post-Clerkship Attorney, you will:

• Contribute to complex litigation matters from day one, including high-stakes trials, appellate proceedings, and class action defense.

• Draft and review motions, briefs, and pleadings that demand precision and persuasive legal writing.

• Collaborate with partners and senior attorneys in case strategy development, trial preparation, and appeals work.

• Handle client interactions with professionalism, discretion, and strong attention to detail.

• Engage in pro bono work (up to 50 hours counted toward billable requirements) while gaining broad exposure to diverse matters.

Qualifications

We are seeking candidates who bring:

• Judicial clerkship experience (state or federal).

• Excellent academic credentials from a respected law school (required).

• Exceptional legal writing, research, and analytical skills.

• Strong communication and interpersonal abilities.

• The ability to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative, and client-focused practice environment.

Compensation & Billable Expectations

• Salary aligned to year of law school graduation and market location.

• Billable expectation: 1,950 hours annually (including 50 pro bono hours).

• Additional 200 productive hours required (client development, firm activities, training).

• Bonus opportunities:

  • 2,050 hours = 5% of base salary

  • 2,150 hours = 10% of base salary

Interview Process

• Round 1: Conversation with a practice group leader.

• Round 2: In-person interview (1.5 2 hours) with firm leadership and team members.

Why This Role Stands Out

This is not just another associate opportunity it's a gateway for judicial clerks to transition into private practice with a firm that values courtroom experience, sharp writing ability, and the discipline of clerkship training. You'll gain immediate exposure to high-profile litigation and appeals, along with the mentorship and resources of a nationally recognized firm.
