Job Description

Criminal Defense AttorneyLocation: West Palm Beach, Florida

On-site

An established West Palm Beach boutique is adding a criminal defense attorney to a growing litigation practice. The firm is led by attorneys who came out of senior government and prosecutorial roles, and that shapes how it approaches defense work: every case is assessed the way the other side will assess it, from the first call.

This is an immediate hire. The caseload exists now. The firm is looking for an attorney who can take files and run with them from day one — not someone who needs a book of business or a long runway.

What You Will Do

Handle criminal defense matters from intake through resolution — arraignment, pretrial motions, negotiation, and trial
Manage your own docket with real autonomy and direct access to firm leadership
Conduct case investigation, evidence review, and witness preparation
Draft and argue motions to suppress, to dismiss, and in limine
Negotiate with prosecutors and appear in state court
Meet with clients and their families directly, often at the worst moment of their lives
Try cases

What We Are Looking For

Member in good standing of The Florida Bar
Criminal defense experience — Florida state court practice preferred; federal experience welcome and not a disqualifier
Independent courtroom experience: your own hearings, your own arguments, your own trials
Sound judgment on when to fight a case and when to resolve it
The ability to carry a full docket without close supervision
Willingness to work on-site in West Palm Beach
