Description

Make an Impact. Build Your Career.

At The Blankenship Law Firm, we’ve spent more than 30 years fighting for fairness, equality, 
and accountability in the workplace and beyond. Since our founding in 1994, we’ve earned a 
reputation for taking on complex employment and civil rights cases that change lives. 
We’re not a high-volume practice. We’re a cohesive results-driven team that selects cases with 
purpose, giving every attorney the opportunity to think strategically, advocate passionately, and 
grow meaningfully.

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Impactful Work: Represent individuals who’ve been wronged and help create safer, 
  fairer workplaces.
• Hands-On Experience: You won’t be a background player — you’ll draft, argue, and 
  lead early in your career.
• Collaborative Culture: Work closely with accomplished litigators in a dynamic, 
  supportive, team-oriented environment.
• Real Mentorship: Learn directly from seasoned trial attorneys who are invested in your 
  growth and success.

What You’ll Do

• Research, draft, and argue substantive motions, complaints, and trial briefs in state and 
  federal courts.
• Take and defend depositions, develop discovery and trial strategies, and prepare 
  witnesses and experts.
• Shape case strategy from day one — including mediation prep and trial presentation. 
  Communicate with clients with empathy, professionalism, and candor.
• Manage multiple projects effectively while maintaining the highest standards of 
  advocacy.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base salary: $110,000 – $180,000, plus performance-based bonuses.
• Medical insurance, retirement plan, and paid time off.
• CLE, bar dues, and professional development covered.
• Dedicated mentorship and early courtroom experience.

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

• Experience: Minimum of 2 years of civil litigation experience preferred, but we will also 
  consider new law school graduates with exceptional backgrounds such as work 
  experience, judicial clerkships, law review, or strong academic records.  
• Skills: Exceptional writing, analytical reasoning, and strategic judgment; deposition or 
  motion practice experience a plus.
• Mindset: Passionate about justice, intellectually curious, and energized by 
  collaboration and growth.
• Licensure: Active Washington Bar license required.

How to Apply 
Send your resume, two writing samples (including one substantive brief), and 2–3 references to careers@blankenshiplawfirm.com. Optional: Include up to 200 words describing a litigation moment you’re proud of.
