Associate Attorney

Associate Attorney at Winder Law Firm

We hire grit, heart, and hustle not perfect résumés.

No courtrooms. No trial prep. Just high-impact negotiation, real client care, and meaningful wins.

If you’re a new law grad hungry to prove yourself…If you’re returning to the workforce after life happened…If you’re switching into PI because you want a shot to build something bigger…If you’ve got more grit than pedigree and more drive than polish…Welcome to Winder Law.

Most PI jobs in Vegas want you drowning in litigation prep, chaos, and impossible caseloads. We built the opposite. A firm focused on quality, communication, clean systems, and real results without burning people out.

What You’ll Do

You’ll shape the legal strategy and handle the attorney-required parts of each case while our case managers manage the daily file work.

• Evaluate liability, damages, treatment, and case value
• Guide clients through the PI process with clarity and empathy
• Build strategic case plans to maximize settlements
• Draft compelling demand packages that get results
• Negotiate directly with adjusters and resolve liens
• Collaborate with case managers, intake, and leadership
• Conduct brief intake-stage attorney consults and explain contingency fee agreements to new clients (high-volume, efficient workflow)
• Prepare files for litigation only when needed — you won’t litigate them
• Assist with commercial and higher-value cases, especially on liability analysis, as your PI experience develops
• Work closely with the Director of the Pre-litigation Department in a dotted-line training and development structure to learn PI at a high level

What You Bring

We are intentionally open-minded about backgrounds.We care about:

• Grit
• Hunger to learn
• Real-world people skills
• Coachability
• Clear, confident communication.
• The ability to advocate boldly and think critically

Education & Licensing

• JD
• Active Nevada Bar license (or ability to obtain)

Bonus Points (Not Dealbreakers)

• Fluency in English & Spanish
• PI experience
• Negotiation experience
• Comfort reviewing medical records

If you’re a recent grad, someone re-entering the workforce, or someone breaking into PI from another legal field — we want to meet you.

This Job Is NOT for You If…

(Yes, we’re saying it out loud.)

• You want to litigate or see the inside of a courtroom
• You hate talking to clients
• You don’t want to manage your own caseload with autonomy
• You struggle to stay organized or meet deadlines
• You want a slow, low-responsibility role

We’re a communication-first, detail-driven firm and we’re proud of it.

Why You’ll Love Working at Winder Law Firm

We’re building a firm that values people, not burnout.

• $80K to $150K based on levels of experience + bonus eligible
• Manageable caseload built for quality over volume
• A mature, supportive environment where people communicate clearly
• Leadership that mentors, supports, and actually listens
• Fast-growing firm with real opportunity for advancement
• Work-life balance that honors your mental health
• A family-owned firm where your work truly matters

We take care of clients and we take care of our team.

Why This Role Stands Out in Las Vegas

Most PI firms look the same. Winder Law Firm is not most firms.

We built a model centered around:

• Top-quality advocacy
• Strong communication
• Real client relationships
• Clean files and organized systems
• A culture built on respect, teamwork, and integrity

If you want the space to be excellent, this is where you belong!
