Trial Attorney – Criminal Defense | Michael & Associates, Los Angeles, CA

Michael & Associates is redefining the standard for criminal defense in California.
After achieving exceptional success in Texas, we’re expanding to the West Coast — bringing our proven model of innovation, efficiency, and elite client service to Los Angeles and beyond.

Our mission is bold: to become the nation’s largest and most effective defense firm within three years — all while fostering a culture where attorneys thrive personally and professionally, and every client receives world-class defense and white-glove service.

Why We’re Different

We’re not a traditional defense firm. We pair elite courtroom advocacy with cutting-edge innovation — leveraging advanced digital marketing, process automation, and data-driven hiring. This modern approach allows us to reach more clients, elevate the quality of representation, and build a next-generation legal powerhouse.

About the Role

We’re seeking an experienced Trial Attorney with a strong presence in the Los Angeles criminal courts — someone who commands respect in the courtroom, connects with juries, and is passionate about defending the rights of the accused.

In this role, you’ll take the lead on major criminal cases from arraignment through trial, supported by a team of talented attorneys, investigators, and staff. This is a rare opportunity to help shape the future of criminal defense in California.

What Sets This Opportunity Apart

Early Role in a Rapidly Growing Firm
Be part of building something extraordinary from the ground up. You’ll have genuine influence — not just a desk and a caseload.

Room to Grow
We’re creating advancement opportunities rarely found in criminal defense. Whether your goals are leadership, trial excellence, or mentorship, you’ll find a clear path forward.

A Forward-Thinking Practice
We embrace technology, efficiency, and continuous improvement — not as buzzwords, but as real tools that empower you to focus on what matters most: your clients.

True Team Collaboration
We win together. Every case benefits from firm-wide teamwork, with A-player attorneys who challenge and support one another to achieve excellence.

Meaningful Impact
You’ll make a difference every day — guiding clients through their most difficult moments and delivering results that truly matter. Our reputation speaks for itself: zealous advocacy grounded in empathy and professionalism.

Requirements

  • Based in California , with deep roots in the state’s criminal defense community
  • 10+ years of hands-on experience practicing criminal defense law and advocating for clients in California courts
  • Active member of the California Bar , ready to make an immediate impact in a fast-growing, innovative firm

Benefits

Pay: $130,000.00 - $160,000.00 per year

Benefits:

  • 401(k)
  • 401(k) matching
  • Dental insurance
