Lateral Partner — Corporate & Litigation (Houston)

An appointment at partner level on this brief is decided by what the practice can carry across, far more than on any headline figure.

We are seeking a senior lateral partner to join a highly regarded international practice in Houston, with significant opportunity to support big-ticket commercial litigation and corporate transactions across a wide range of industries.

The platform prioritizes team acquisitions over individual hires, enabling incoming partners to materially expand transactional volume and manage substantial commercial litigation matters. The firm is particularly focused on serving clients in life sciences, financial services, technology, energy, and the automotive sector.

This is a strategic opportunity for a partner with an established practice to integrate into a multidisciplinary team and leverage a strong cross-border footprint spanning key U.S. and international markets.

• Partner-level experience in corporate transactions and commercial litigation
• Portable book of business of $5M+ (USD)
• Demonstrated ability to lead matters and cross-sell across practices
• Strong academic and professional credentials
• Stable career history, with preference for candidates who have not made numerous firm moves

Discussions are held in confidence and your name reaches no one without your say-so.
