Michael & Associates is revolutionizing criminal defense in California. Building upon our proven success in Texas, we are now expanding our presence to the West Coast, with the goal of providing exceptional client service and operational excellence in Los Angeles and its surrounding areas.

Our aspirations are ambitious: within the next three years, we aim to become the largest and most effective criminal defense firm in the country. Simultaneously, we are dedicated to fostering a supportive environment that promotes both the professional growth and personal well-being of our attorneys, while consistently delivering outstanding advocacy and unmatched service to every client.

Why We’re Different

We are redefining the conventional defense law firm framework by merging outstanding courtroom advocacy with cutting-edge technological advancements. By leveraging digital marketing, automation, and data-driven recruitment methods, we broaden our impact, enhance our outcomes, and cultivate a progressive, innovative legal practice.

About the Role

We seek a highly esteemed Trial Attorney, well-recognized within the criminal courts of Los Angeles—an individual who commands authority in the courtroom, connects effectively with juries, and is passionately dedicated to defending the rights of the accused.

In this role, you will lead significant criminal cases from arraignment through trial, supported by a talented team of attorneys, investigators, and support personnel. This opportunity offers a distinctive chance to significantly influence the future of criminal defense in California.
