Job description
Founding Partner Opportunity | Minneapolis, MN
An Am Law-recognized national law firm is seeking an entrepreneurial Partner to help establish and lead its Minneapolis presence.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a true market-building role with the backing of a well-established national platform. The firm has a significant footprint across the country, sophisticated national clients, and a strategic commitment to investing in the Minneapolis market.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Opportunity to serve as a foundational leader in a new office launch.
Significant autonomy to shape strategy, culture, and future growth.
Access to national clients, resources, and cross-selling opportunities.
Higher-value, complex matters rather than high-volume commodity work.
Clear pathway to build and mentor a team over time.
Strong support from firm leadership and existing national practice groups.
Ability to leverage national billing rates and a broad client base while growing a practice in the Minnesota market.
Areas of Interest
The firm is open to a variety of litigation and business law practices, with particular interest in attorneys handling:
Insurance Defense
Transportation & Trucking Litigation
Professional Liability
General Liability & Catastrophic Injury Defense
Product Liability
Cybersecurity & Privacy
Intellectual Property
Employment Litigation
Commercial Litigation
Construction Litigation
Breach Response & Incident Response
National Accounts and Multi-Jurisdictional Matters
Ideal Candidate
Partner or senior attorney with strong Minnesota market relationships.
Established reputation within the local business and legal community.
Leadership experience or desire to lead and grow a team.
Entrepreneurial mindset and interest in building something long-term.
Experience managing client relationships and developing business.
Ability to service both existing client relationships and firm-generated work.
A portable book of business is welcomed, but not required . The firm is particularly interested in attorneys with a strong professional network in Minnesota, a demonstrated ability to generate opportunities, and a genuine interest in helping build a market presence from the ground up.
Compensation
Compensation is highly competitive and can reach $250,000 , with additional upside tied to leadership responsibilities, practice growth, and business development.
The Opportunity
This role is ideal for an attorney who wants more than just a seat at the table. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to help shape the direction of a new office, build a team, expand their profile in the market, and take advantage of the resources, reputation, and client relationships of a nationally recognized law firm.
If you’ve been looking for a platform that combines entrepreneurial freedom with the support of an established national firm, this is a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact in the Minneapolis legal market.
