Description

The Job You Hoped Law School Would Lead To — But Better
 

Picture this: You’re standing in a sleek 48th-floor office with floor-to-ceiling views of downtown Denver and the Rockies. You’re surrounded by sharp, mission-driven lawyers who believe in what they do. You’re using top-tier tools, working real cases, and becoming a better trial lawyer every day.
 

Welcome to Bachus & Schanker — where litigation meets purpose, mentorship meets momentum, and justice actually gets done.
 

We represent people — not corporations. We stand up against billionaire insurance companies and corporate giants on the side of the people. We fight for justice in a system that too often breaks its promises to those without power — denying, delaying, and underpaying when everyday families need help most. If you’ve got the drive, the heart, and the hunger to stand up for what’s right, this could be the career you’ve been waiting for.
 

Why This Job Stands Out

  • We Fight the Good Fight
    This is meaningful litigation — the kind that impacts real lives. We take on injustice with skill, compassion, and fearless advocacy for those who’ve been wronged.
  • We Build Trial Lawyers
    You’ll be part of a firm that invests in its lawyers and believes in the power of shared knowledge. We offer the resources to win, the mentorship to grow, and the space to collaborate. You’ll learn from experienced trial attorneys, contribute to high-level strategy discussions, and be part of a team that constantly refines its tactics — together.
  • You’ll Grow with Support — and Autonomy
    We value independent thinking. You’ll have the opportunity to develop your own style and strategies, with the backing of a team that believes in empowering its attorneys — not micromanaging them.
  • We’re Leaders in Legal Innovation
    From AI-assisted litigation tools to best-in-class case management systems, we invest in cutting-edge technology and bold strategy to give our clients — and our lawyers — every advantage.
  • You’ll Work in a Place That Feels as Good as It Looks
    Our 48th-floor downtown office is a daily reminder of the level we play at. Bright, modern, open — it’s a space that inspires focus, energy, and pride.
