Consultation Attorney

Compensation is performance-based with meaningful upside for strong closers. Target earnings range from $180,000–$320,000 depending on volume and conversion rate.

This is a full-time full remote role with a flexible schedule. Personal onsite office is available if you want it, but not required.

The Role

You don’t want another caseload. You don’t want another trial. What you want is a room, a prospective client, and the chance to do what you’ve always done best — read the situation, build the trust, and close.

This is a pure consultation role. You will not carry a caseload, draft discovery, or appear in court. What you will do is conduct every initial consultation with our prospective clients, assess their matter with seasoned legal judgment, and convert qualified prospects into signed engagements. Then you hand them to the right attorney on our bench — matched by case complexity, practice strength, and capacity — and step back.

We are looking for a skilled litigator who is ready for a new challenge — and who has always been the one who closes.

The Opportunity

You will not prospect. You will not chase leads. You will have a steady, firm-managed pipeline of consultations — your job is to close them well and make the right match.

This role is designed for an attorney who has spent years in the courtroom and has earned the judgment that comes from it — and who is now ready to apply that judgment without the grind of litigation. The compensation structure reflects the value of that skill set, with meaningful upside for someone who converts at a high rate.

We have a deep bench of attorneys across skill levels and practice strengths, so your matches will actually land well. We operate with transparency — you will know exactly how success is measured, what the earning potential looks like, and what the path forward is.
