[Hiring] Sales Attorney @Michael & Associates, Attorneys at Law

Role Description

Step into the role of a Sales/Intake Attorney and become the vital first connection for individuals in need of expert legal representation. You’ll connect personally with clients facing serious criminal charges, thoroughly evaluate their cases, and clearly demonstrate how Michael & Associates is the trusted ally to safeguard their rights and future.

Best of all, this role does not require cold calling—each lead is pre-qualified and actively seeking legal support. Your key mission is to build genuine trust, communicate the unique strengths of our firm, and expertly guide potential clients every step of the way toward securing our top-tier legal services.

Key Responsibilities

• Engage and Convert:
  • Hold daily consultations with around 20 qualified leads.
  • Quickly establish rapport, identify client needs, and obtain signed retainers.
• Educate and Advise:
  • Gain an in-depth knowledge of California criminal law and our firm's established defense strategies.
  • Respond confidently to client inquiries and clearly explain our approach in a reassuring manner.
• Empathize and Reassure:
  • Provide support to clients who may feel anxious, uncertain, or overwhelmed.
  • Exhibit professionalism, patience, and empathy to foster trust and confidence.
• Represent the Brand:
  • Consistently embody Michael & Associates’ dedication to excellence, advocacy, and white-glove service in every interaction.
  • Establish a welcoming and exceptional client experience from the very first call.

• Be Part of a Fast-Growing Firm: You’ll be joining our California launch team — the ground floor of a national expansion. Help build something new and be part of a firm that’s scaling fast.

• Team Collaboration: No lone wolves here. Every client benefits from the expertise of the entire firm. You’ll work alongside highly skilled attorneys who share your passion for excellence.
• Make a Real Difference: Every day, you’ll help people through one of the most stressful times in their lives — providing hope, clarity, and first-rate representation. Our reviews speak for themselves: we fight hard and care deeply.
