  • Take and defend depositions, and attend hearings on your own.
  • Draft pleadings, motions, briefs, and written discovery, and manage the discovery process.
  • Communicate directly with clients, providing updates, strategy recommendations, and responsive service.
  • Collaborate with Partners and fellow attorneys to develop case strategy and share insights across the team.
Required Education and Experience:
  • 2+ years of civil litigation experience, preferably in premises liability, trucking, personal injury, or general liability defense.
  • Juris Doctorate Degree from an accredited law school.
  • Licensed to practice law in Texas and in good standing.
  • Located in, or able to travel to, the Dallas area for on-site or hybrid work (remote also available).
  • Perks of Working at Kelley Kronenberg:
    • Competitive salary with a yearly bonus
    • Company-paid PPO health insurance, with dental and vision options
