Associate Lawyer

THE ROLE: ASSOCIATE LAWYER (EMPLOYMENT LITIGATION)

• Location: 100% Remote (Must reside in Ontario or Atlantic Canada)
• Type: Full-time, Permanent
• Practice Area: Plaintiff-side Employment Law Only

FORGET EVERYTHING YOU HATE ABOUT PRIVATE PRACTICE

At Resolute Employment & Disability Lawyers, we have removed the things that burn lawyers out:

• No Billable Hours: We don't sell time. We sell solutions. You will never have to track a 0.1 again.
• Performance-Based Pay: You earn a base salary plus a significant bonus based directly on the revenue you generate.
• No Commute: We are a 100% remote firm. As long as you are in Ontario or Atlantic Canada, your office is wherever you say it is.

WHO WE ARE

Resolute Legal is a national law firm built on a singular mission: to level the playing field for everyday people against powerful institutions. We exclusively represent individuals—never employers or insurance companies. We are the firm for the underdog.

THE OPPORTUNITY: WE HIRE FOR ATTITUDE AND TRAIN FOR SKILL

We are seeking a Lawyer to join our litigation team.

• 100% Plaintiff-Side: Your focus will be exclusively on Wrongful Dismissal, Constructive Dismissal, and Human Rights.
• No "Rainmaking" Required: You do not need to bring a book of business. You will assume a full, active caseload on Day 1 provided by our marketing team.
• Mentorship: Don't have employment law experience? We can teach you the law. We are looking for the right "hunter" mindset and a passion for advocacy.

COMPENSATION: HOW YOU EARN $100K - $140K+

We list a Total Compensation range of $100,000 - $140,000+ because our model is designed for high performers to significantly out-earn their base salary.

• The Base ($65,000 - $85,000): We provide a competitive base salary range commensurate with your experience to ensure financial security.
• The Bonus (Profit Share): Unlike discretionary bonuses, our system is transparent. You earn a significant share of the revenue you generate above your annual target.
• The Logic: We cover all marketing, intake, and overhead costs. Your bonus is pure income.
• Realistic Earnings: A lawyer running a full caseload efficiently should expect their total annual compensation (Base + Bonus) to fall between $100,000 and $140,000. There is no cap on your earning potential.

REQUIREMENTS

• Bar Admission: Must be a member in good standing (or eligible for immediate call) of the Law Society of Ontario, Nova Scotia, or New Brunswick.
• Location: Must reside in Ontario or Atlantic Canada.
• Experience: 1-5 years of litigation experience preferred (Employment law experience is a bonus, but not required).
• Tech-Savvy: Must be comfortable using cloud-based practice management software and video conferencing daily.

IDEALLY, YOU ARE: A lawyer who feels out of place in a traditional firm. Maybe you are tired of the Bay Street grind, insurance defense, or management-side politics. If you have the drive to fight for the "little guy," we have the platform for you to succeed.
