Job Description

Associate Criminal Defense Attorney

Yakima & Ellensburg, WA | $80k – $120k + bonuses + potential partnership track

Why?

  • Hybrid schedule: work remotely for prep days; be in court or the office when needed.

  • Relocation boost: stipend + first-month housing for attorneys moving to area.
  • Pet-friendly office: bring your well-behaved dog or cat to office.
  • Modern tech stack

  • Annual adventure CLE: firm-paid trip to a fun destination for continuing ed.
  • Medical concierge: Compass Direct health membership (unlimited family-medicine visits).

What You’ll Do

  • Own a caseload of traffic and non-DUI misdemeanors in Yakima & Kittitas Counties. If you have experience or interest in other types of cases, let's chat! This area is ripe for new attorneys in all areas of the law.
  • Team up on DUI cases with Tony Swartz — learn proven defense strategies.
  • Draft motions, negotiate with prosecutors, and take cases to trial when needed.

What We’re Looking For

  • Courtroom confidence; criminal-law experience preferred but not required.
  • Genuine commitment to protecting clients in a close-knit community.
  • Someone who wants to live in a rural area. This isn't a big city, but we're close to Seattle for all of the activities you want to participate in.

Location Highlights

  • Short commutes , good weather, and plenty of housing options. Live in Yakima or Ellensburg - your choice. The office has locations in both cities.
  • Options like mountain biking, fly-fishing, skiing , and hiking right outside town.
  • Yakima Valley's wine country and a vibrant music/arts scene in Ellensburg make it fun.
