Motion Attorney | Substantive Briefing, Plaintiff Side

Here's what a good motion attorney role looks like: A caseload that moves between Jones Act, maritime, oilfield burn, premises liability, and wrongful death. A partner group that only takes cases aimed at 8-9 figure verdicts - some have cleared $400M. Brief work that lands in courtrooms, not filing cabinets. Substantive writing - Daubert challenges, dispositive motions, expert briefing - not caption swaps on last month's templates.

Hybrid schedule with real flex. Leave early for your kid's game, no special sign-off required. If you're playing in this space and not seeing this kind of work, this kind of challenge, or this kind of pay - we should talk.

• 2-5 years of substantive motion practice, ideally plaintiff-side
• Texas Bar (or eligible to waive in)
• Strong foundation in Daubert, summary judgment, and dispositive motions
• Ability to pivot across subject matters fast - research is part of the job
• Experience with complex fact patterns (maritime, oilfield, or catastrophic injury a plus)

• Draft substantive motions across Jones Act, maritime, oilfield, premises, and wrongful death cases
• Own Daubert challenges and expert-focused briefing
• Support trial teams on cases with 8-9 figure verdict potential
• Research new subject matters fast - no two cases look alike
• Respond to defense filings with sharp, case-specific work

• Brief portfolio you can actually cite in your next move
• Direct exposure to cases with 8-9 figure verdict potential (some have cleared $400M)
• Hybrid schedule with real flex - not policy theater
• Partners who treat writing as the work, not an afterthought
• Competitive base with performance bonus
• Practice variety that keeps the technical skills sharp
