Core Talent Services is conducting a confidential search on behalf of one of the most respected and nationally recognized law firms in the country. With a deep footprint across the Southeast and a growing Birmingham presence, this firm is in an aggressive growth phase and is actively seeking experienced Shareholder-level attorneys who are ready to bring their practice — and their clients — to a platform built for long-term success.

This is not a position that requires a specific practice area. The firm is open to accomplished attorneys across all disciplines — litigation, corporate, real estate, employment, healthcare, finance, construction, insurance defense, intellectual property, estate planning, or any other area of law. What matters is that you have built a meaningful, portable book of business and are looking for a firm with the resources, reputation, and culture to take your practice to the next level.

—  Nationally recognized platform with deep local roots in Birmingham and across the Southeast

—  Collaborative, entrepreneurial culture that values the attorney's relationships and gives them the autonomy to grow

—  Highly competitive compensation structure with meaningful equity participation for shareholder-level attorneys

—  Access to a national client base and the firm's full-service capabilities to serve your clients at a higher level

—  A leadership team committed to transparency, attorney development, and long-term partnership
