What are the responsibilities and job description for the Attorney position at Jones Law Firm PLLC?
Associate Attorney/Senior Counsel
Fed up with the soul-crushing corporate firm life? Join our growing law firm as an Associate or Senior Counsel and rediscover why you became a lawyer. You’ll have autonomy in practice areas covering commercial litigation, business law, public policy and government relations, estate planning, property law, and more. Our clients are ranchers, business owners, and families who live down the road, and your work genuinely changes their lives.
We’re growing, deliberately, and we’re choosing who grows with us. In Billings, you can afford a house. Your commute is twelve minutes or less. When you leave the office, the Beartooths and the Yellowstone are waiting. People in Billings have weekends—and so will you. At Jones Law Firm, you’ll get flexibility, independence, and the option for remote work. No more micromanaging partners or endless billable hour quotas. Lead cases your way, collaborate with a tight-knit team, and enjoy a life outside the office. Plus, we offer competitive pay and a chance to shape our firm’s future.
What you’ll do
• Manage a varied caseload across multiple practice areas with mentorship and support
• Handle counseling clients, drafting legal documents and briefs, negotiation, and court appearances
• Build and maintain strong client relationships in the Billings community
What we’re looking for
• Attorney licensed and in good standing with the State Bar of Montana
• 3-5 years’ experience—though we’ll consider the right candidate at any stage
• Strong writing, research, and communication skills
• Self-motivated, organized, and comfortable juggling diverse matters
• A genuine interest in serving clients and putting down roots in Montana
What we offer
• Freedom and flexibility
• Competitive salary, depending on experience
• Retirement benefits, paid time off, CLE and bar dues coverage
• A collegial, low-bureaucracy environment with direct access to superiors
• Opportunity to shape the future of the firm
• The lifestyle that comes with Billings—affordable living, short commutes, and the Rockies in your backyard
