Michael & Associates is transforming the landscape of modern criminal defense. By integrating technology, operational excellence, and a client-centered philosophy, we aim to set a new benchmark for legal representation.

We are in search of seasoned Criminal Defense Attorneys who aspire to go beyond traditional roles—individuals eager to create a significant impact.

Our attorneys concentrate on the most critical aspects: strategic case management, effective client communication, and providing top-notch representation throughout every phase of the process.

Why You’ll Love This Role

1. Focus Exclusively on Practicing Law

We didn’t become lawyers to manage billing, marketing, or administrative tasks—we became lawyers to advocate for and win for our clients. At Michael & Associates, that’s exactly what you’ll do.

Our infrastructure is designed to let you focus on your craft, supported by:

• A 5:1 staff-to-trial attorney ratio
• A dedicated intake team—no sales or onboarding duties
• A full-time legal assistant for every attorney
• Specialized teams handling ALRs, ODLs, billing, and admin
• ALR hearings managed by experts
• Strategic case assignments to minimize travel and align with your expertise
• Remote work flexibility when not in court

Our systems empower you to practice law at the highest level—without distractions.

2. Real Opportunities for Growth

Unlike most defense roles, there’s no ceiling here. At Michael & Associates, you can:

• Advance your career without leaving the courtroom
• Explore leadership, mentorship, or specialized practice roles
• Grow with a firm on a clear national trajectory

We’re building a place where defense attorneys can grow, lead, and thrive.

3. Competitive Compensation & Benefits

We back our attorneys with a strong compensation and benefits package, including:

• Competitive base salary with bonuses tied to client satisfaction
• Work-from-home flexibility when not in court
• Mileage reimbursement for extended travel
• 401(k) with employer match
• Fully covered CLEs and bar dues

4. Collaborate with Top-Tier Talent

We hire only the top 10% of defense attorneys — no entry-level or junior hires. Our lawyers average 10+ years of experience, and collaboration is at the heart of our culture.

You’ll work alongside exceptional peers who elevate your practice — not compete with it — ensuring better outcomes for clients and a more rewarding professional experience.

5. Join a Visionary Growth Story

Michael & Associates is already a major force in Texas — and we’re just getting started. Our goal: to become the first nationwide criminal defense brand.

Join us at this exciting stage of expansion and help shape the future of criminal defense across the country.

6. A Modern, Innovative Firm

Criminal defense is personal — for our clients and for us. We provide concierge-level service with empathy, diligence, and dedication. Our impact is real, reflected in outstanding results and client feedback.

8. Premium Practice, Manageable Caseload

We operate as a premium firm, which means:
