About the Role

This is a senior-level opportunity to own and grow a high-volume Chapter 7 consumer bankruptcy practice within a fully remote law firm. You'll serve as the senior legal voice for the practice, working alongside an experienced paralegal team — with all marketing, lead generation, and client acquisition handled for you so you can focus on the law.

What You'll Do

  • Lead the consumer bankruptcy practice end to end, from intake through discharge across 90–120 day case cycles.

  • Manage a high-volume Chapter 7 caseload with multiple simultaneous filings at any given time.

  • Collaborate closely with a senior paralegal team to maintain case throughput and quality standards.

  • Help hire, vet, and mentor junior attorneys as the practice scales.

  • Serve as the senior legal authority on complex or contested consumer bankruptcy matters.

What We're Looking For

  • 10+ years of dedicated consumer bankruptcy experience with a strong Chapter 7 focus (consumer debtor side, not creditor-side or corporate/Chapter 11).

  • Active Texas bar license in good standing — required.

  • Demonstrated expertise managing high-volume consumer bankruptcy caseloads with accuracy and efficiency.

  • JD from an accredited law school.

  • Proficiency with legal case management software and remote collaboration tools.

  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills when working with clients experiencing financial distress.

  • Leadership or practice management experience, including supervising junior attorneys or overseeing a practice group, is a strong plus.

  • Chapter 13 consumer bankruptcy experience is a plus.

  • No visa sponsorship available — must be authorized to work in the United States.
