Careers

Laterals

Our lateral attorneys join MLA because of our substantial practice areas, strong client base, and leading industry experience. We seek candidates who will be successful here and realize their potential. MLA places a strong emphasis on academic and professional excellence and is looking for individuals who have a commitment to becoming an excellent lawyer, who will inspire confidence among colleagues and clients and who will thrive in a team approach to problem solving. It is important that individuals have a strong desire for significant responsibility early in their careers. We also believe that a well-rounded attorney should contribute to the community in which they live and work.

Lateral Attorney Spotlight

"The key to any organization must be its people--the lawyers themselves, fellow colleagues and staff.  When you combine great people with caring leadership, passion for the law and  sincere concern for clients, you have just a few of the reasons I joined MLA."
