Opportunities for lawyers
Davis Miles combines sophisticated practices with cutting edge customer service and consumer law in a blend that few other firms can manage. For many of our clients, we are the only law firm they ever need. If their business is being sold or being sued…or if a family or personal matter arises, they know who they can trust – us. As part of our team, you’ll meet some of the best lawyers in the region who also are committed to improve lives.
The balance between mentorship and enabling individual growth through exposure to opportunity is one few law firms do well. In biglaw, you may end up only learning part of a transaction or matter, and doing the same thing for years, without ever having ownership of your matters or, for that matter, your career. We are built differently. If you already have an established practice, you’ll find collaboration and creative compensation that make a compelling case for joining our team.
