Associate Litigation Attorney - GROWING FIRM - FAST TRACK CAREER at Southwest Litigation Firm
JOB DESCRIPTION
About the Opportunity
We are expanding our civil litigation team and are hiring Arizona-licensed attorneys. This is an opportunity for attorneys who want to litigate, not spectate - you will handle real hearings, draft substantive motions, work directly with clients, and build a portfolio of meaningful litigation experience early in your career.
Whether you have a few years of practice or are newly barred, this role offers an accelerated path to becoming a seasoned litigator.
What Makes This Role Stand Out
Immediate courtroom and motion practice - real hearings, real cases, real responsibility
Fast-paced litigation development - learn dispositive motions, depositions, mediations, arbitrations, trial skills
Mentorship that actually accelerates your growth - hands-on training and continuous feedback
Structured workflow & autonomy - we don't micromanage; we train you, trust you, and let you take ownership
A collaborative team culture - motivated litigators who help each other win
Career growth built in - strong performers advance quickly and take on leadership roles
Substantive writing practice - MSJs, MTDs, discovery motions, evidentiary workups, and more
Litigation experience that builds a real career - not back-office work, not doc review
If you want to be a confident, capable litigator within your first few years, this is the job.
Compensation
- Salary: $110,000 (flexible)
- Bonus: $1,000/month incentive-based bonus (most attorneys achieve the monthly standard) + Year end bonus
- The opportunities at a growing firm are endless!
Who Should Apply

- Attorneys who WANT TO LITIGATE
- Recent bar passers
- Judicial law clerks seeking direct courtroom experience
- Associates in other practice areas (family, corporate, criminal, immigration, debtor's rights, HOA, real estate, etc.) looking to pivot into full-time litigation
