• Lead criminal defense cases from strategy to verdict
  , fiercely protecting client rights and driving strong outcomes.
• Develop sophisticated, evidence-based defense strategies
  grounded in deep legal research, case analysis, and proactive investigation.
• Command client relationships
  , delivering clear, strategic counsel while managing expectations and building trust.
• Draft and file persuasive motions, briefs, and pleadings
  that move cases forward and create leverage.
• Negotiate strategically with prosecutors
  , leveraging preparation and positioning to secure dismissals, reductions, or favorable resolutions.
• Dominate in the courtroom
  , presenting compelling arguments, cross-examining witnesses with precision, and thinking quickly under pressure.
• Continuously sharpen your edge
  , staying ahead of legal trends, statutory updates, and evolving case law to outmaneuver opposing counsel.

• JD and an active New Jersey law license in good standing.
• 1–3+ years of criminal defense or litigation experience
  with real courtroom exposure and independent case responsibility
• You’ve worked as a PD/DA, in a traditional firm, or run your own practice — and you’re ready to focus on practicing law, not chasing overhead, billing drama, or administrative chaos.

• Comfortable taking ownership of your caseload while collaborating within a high-accountability, performance-driven team.
• A client-first professional with high emotional intelligence and strong communication instincts.
• Tech-forward and comfortable in a fully remote environment (Clio, , Microsoft 365, Zoom, Loom, Otter AI).

If you’re leaving:

This is your opportunity to step into a modern, growth-focused platform
where you can concentrate on advocacy, strategy, and results — while we handle the infrastructure.
