As such, there is no shortage of work in our firm and no shortage of opportunities for associates. Our associates are immediately exposed to the entire world of litigation; with the appropriate training and supervision, associates regularly take and defend depositions, represent clients at mediations and argue hearings in state and federal courts. The typical associate at our firm also participates at least as second chair in a trial during the first year of practice and many more thereafter. While research and writing are a critical component of our associates’ training and development, our associates are not locked in an office conducting legal research or summarizing documents.
We train our associates to practice law and litigate cases beginning to end early in their careers. We are therefore only looking for those few highly-motivated, self-starter individuals with strong character that are willing to accept the challenge of becoming exceptional trial lawyers.
Mounce Green Myers, a full-service law firm located in El Paso, Texas, handling legal matters throughout Texas and New Mexico, is seeking three experienced associate attorneys to join its thriving practice in the areas of personal injury defense litigation, general business and commercial litigation, and labor and employment law.

Admission to practice in Texas is required.The ideal candidates should have at least two years of substantive experience in comparable areas. Civil litigation experience handling motions, hearings, depositions, mediations, and trials is ideal. For more information, please email Recruiting Chair Andres E. Almanzan.
The Firm offers a highly competitive salary, exceptional benefits, including 401(k) and match, medical, dental, vision as well as performance-based bonuses. Flexible opportunities such as Remote working and Staff Attorney positions are available.
We are looking for outstanding candidates with a serious desire to work in El Paso after graduation. We treat our summer law clerks like they are first year associates, by giving them challenging and meaningful assignments in pending cases and taking them to observe client meetings, site inspections, depositions, mediations, hearings, and trials. Our summer law clerks are not assigned to a specific practice area; they are assigned two supervising shareholders and a supervising associate, but they receive assignments from most of our shareholders, allowing them to experience a wide range of legal issues in different areas of the law. Our summer law clerks also get to experience life on the border by participating in a number of recreational activities during the summer, such as lunches, dinners, social gatherings, happy hours, and sporting and cultural events.
We conduct on campus interviews at many law schools in Texas. If you are attending law school in another State or if we are not coming to your law school, we are still very interested in you. Please send your cover letter, resume, transcript and writing sample to our Recruiting Chair, Andres E. Almanzan (almanzan@mgmsg.com).
In addition to our summer clerkship program, we also hire third-year law students, recent graduates, and more experienced attorneys, as needed.
