MWM is looking for transactional attorneys who are either senior associates or junior partners with books of business. These attorneys may be looking for a firm they can prosper in because they are stuck in a larger firm with high rates and conflict issues, which limits their ability to retain clients and grow their practice. They could be from a boutique, looking to join a firm that offers a more comprehensive list of legal services for their clients and prospects.
MWM offers both opportunities. We provide competitive services with lower overhead and we have a growing, full-service law firm that can address all of the business needs of our clients.
We are interested in interviewing transactional attorneys in real estate, banking, healthcare, and other transactional areas. If you are a candidate or you have a candidate in mind, contact our HR manager Gaylene Hood, ghood@munckwilson.com.
