Our commitment to exceptional client advocacy is matched only by our dedication to supporting each other as colleagues and friends. This is the promise we make and uphold every day. 

 

We are currently seeking an experienced Criminal Defense Trial Attorney who shares our passion for justice, thrives in the courtroom, and is eager to contribute to a supportive and empowering team culture. The ideal candidate is a strategic thinker, a confident trial advocate, and someone who can independently manage cases from start to finish. 

 

Why Join Us:  

Purpose-Driven Work: Every case matters deeply, and your work will have a direct impact on the lives of individuals and their families.

• Draft pleadings, motions, and trial briefs with clarity and precision. 

• Advocate vigorously in court, protecting client interests at every stage. 

 

Courtroom Excellence  

• Regularly appear in court for hearings, motion arguments, and trials. 

• Conduct effective voir dire, compelling opening statements, persuasive closing arguments, and skillful witness examinations. 

• Negotiate favorable plea agreements and advocate assertively at sentencing hearings. 

 

Investigation & Discovery  

• Lead discovery efforts, review critical evidence, and collaborate with investigators and experts to develop robust case theories. 

• Ensure timely compliance with discovery obligations and manage case deadlines meticulously. 

 

Client-Centered Approach  

• Communicate proactively and compassionately with clients, guiding them clearly through the legal process. 

• Foster trust and confidence by providing honest, strategic advice and consistent case updates. 

 

Leadership & Mentorship  

• Serve as a mentor and resource for junior attorneys, paralegals, and support staff. 

• Actively contribute to the growth and professional development of team members, enhancing the firm’s collaborative environment. 

 

Qualifications:  

• Juris Doctor (JD) degree and active Kansas bar membership. 

• 5+ years of significant criminal defense trial experience. 

• Demonstrated ability to independently handle a diverse and demanding caseload. 

• Exceptional trial advocacy, legal writing, and oral communication skills. 

• Strong organizational skills and ability to prioritize effectively. 

• Emotional intelligence, empathy, integrity, and commitment to team culture. 

 

Our Core Values:  

Calculated Resistance: We strategically challenge injustice and advocate decisively. 

Right over Resolution: We choose integrity over convenience, always fighting for what’s right. 

Respect for Individual Experience: Every client and team member is valued for their unique journey. 

Continuous Improvement: We constantly refine our skills and systems for exceptional client service and personal growth. 

Outcomes over Time: We focus on meaningful results rather than hours spent, promoting work-life balance and professional effectiveness. 

 

Ready to Make a Difference?  

If you’re ready to join a law firm committed to justice, excellence, and supportive teamwork, we invite you to apply. To be considered, please submit your resume along with a cover letter highlighting your trial experience and why you feel aligned with Triad Legal’s mission and values.
