Hackworth, [email protected]. n Associate Attorney with Shareholder Path: The LBA’s Placement Service is currently working with a centrally-located Louisville law office that is seeking an associate attorney to help support their creditor’s rights practice. They will be working with collections while learning some other areas of practice, such as bankruptcy, foreclosure and litigation. The individual will be making appearances at court both here in Jefferson County and out in the state. While the firm would consider a new graduate, experi- ence is preferred, and the right candidate will be put on track to become equity shareholder in the firm. Candidates must be willing to travel, must be a “people person,” with the ability to think on their feet, and be willing to learn new areas of the law. This is a full-time position with salary, potential bonuses, health insurance and other benefits. Salary is compensatory to experience. Send resumes in MS Word format to the LBA Placement Service Director, David Mohr, [email protected]. Medical Defense Attorney: The LBA is working with a growing medical defense law office located on the east side of Lou- isville that is seeking to add an attorney to their practice. They would like a two+ year lawyer with experience in medical malpractice, long term care or injury law. The ability to work with medical records or learn how to work with medical records is a must. Excellent writing and communication skills are required. Prior litigation/court experience (of any kind) is required. Court appearances (some requiring travel to all parts of the state) are necessary. If there are no candidates fitting this role, they are willing to train the right person. The practice is highly litigious with a lot of motion practice, brief writing and arguments. The non-experienced candidate needs to have a strong background in those areas (or just a strong backbone) and be willing to learn the medical side. The job is full-time. Salary is competitive for the size of the firm and based on experience. 1800/hrs billable goal. Excellent benefits package, plus discretionary bonuses twice a year. Send resumes in MS Word format to the LBA Placement Service Director, David Mohr, [email protected]. Defense Attorney: The LBA’s Placement Service is currently working with a medium-size law office in downtown Louisville that is seeking to hire both a seasoned attorney that can handle cases with minimal supervision, as well as a newer attorney. The firm primarily has a civil defense practice con- sisting of insurance defense-type cases. The seasoned attorney candidate must have at least four+ years of experience with civil litigation in Kentucky. The newer attorney can be a recent graduate to two+ years of any experience. Excellent salary based on experience, plus bonus opportunities. Send resumes in MS Word format to the LBA Placement Service Director, David Mohr, [email protected].
