Job description

Litigation Lawyer (5+ Years) — Run Your Own Practice, With a Team Behind You

Most litigation roles ask you to trade autonomy for a salary, or income for independence. We don't think you should have to choose.

Marshall Law Group is a growing Southwestern Ontario litigation firm looking for an experienced litigator who wants the upside of running their own book — uncapped, commission-based income and the option to practice through their own professional corporation — with the support, infrastructure, and collegiality of an established team. You bring the advocacy; we bring the platform.

Why this role is different

- You eat what you grow.** Compensation is commission-based, not capped by a fixed salary. The harder and smarter you work your files, the more you earn — with full transparency on how it's calculated.

- Practice through your own PC.** Operate under your own professional corporation if you choose, and keep the tax efficiency that comes with it. Your practice, structured your way.

- Real autonomy.** Take genuine carriage of your files, set your own strategy, and own your client relationships. We trust experienced lawyers to be lawyers.

- Flexible hours.** Build your schedule around your life and your files, not around a clock.

- A collaborative team, not a silo.** Bounce strategy off colleagues, share precedents, and lean on each other for coverage. Independence without isolation.

- Buy-in health benefits.** Option to join the firm's group health benefits plan.

- A firm on the way up.** We're growing across Ontario and beyond, and you'll have room to grow with us — and to shape what comes next

Who you are

- Member in good standing with the Law Society of Ontario.

- **5+ years** of litigation experience, with the proven ability to run files independently as lead counsel.

- Comfortable in court, with strong drafting, advocacy, and client-management skills.

- Entrepreneurial and self-motivated — you want to build something, not just bill hours.

- Sound judgment, professionalism, and a practical, client-focused mindset.

- Experience in general civil / commercial / employment / municipal / tribunal / criminal litigation is an asset.

What we offer at a glance

- Competitive, **commission-based income with genuine, uncapped upside**

Option to operate through your **own professional corporation** for tax efficiency

- Buy-in to the firm's health benefits plan**

- Flexible hours - and a hybrid working arrangement
