Step into a cutting-edge legal role where technology, innovation, and the law intersect. A respected Utah-based law firm—represented by Mission Recruiting—is seeking a seasoned attorney with 6+ years of experience in intellectual property, technology law, or compliance to advise clients navigating the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone with a deep curiosity for emerging technologies, particularly AI. Prior experience in AI law is not required—what matters most is your ability to apply foundational IP and tech legal knowledge to help companies comply with global AI regulations, build internal governance, and manage risk across product development.
Why This Role Stands Out:
- Competitive salary for the Salt Lake market: $170,000–$188,000 base
- Transparent bonus structure with earnings up to $100,000+
- Realistic 7-year partnership track
- 1850 billable hour target—significantly lower than BigLaw
- Hybrid schedule: 3 days in-office, 2 remote for top candidates
- Highly collaborative, mentorship-driven environment
- Firm-wide commitment to wellness, work-life balance, and tech-forward legal service
Your Responsibilities:
- Counsel clients on AI frameworks (EU AI Act, U.S. state/federal laws)
- Draft/review contracts involving AI and tech products
- Create AI governance and ethical use policies
- Monitor new legislation and develop firm-facing thought leadership
- Collaborate across privacy, cybersecurity, and IP teams
- Mentor junior attorneys and participate in strategic planning
You Bring:
- 6+ years of experience in IP, technology law, or compliance
- Knowledge of data privacy (GDPR, CCPA) is a major plus
- Experience with contract negotiation in tech sectors
- Background in computer science or engineering is a bonus
- Admission to any U.S. Bar (Utah preferred or willing to join)
- Team-player attitude with strong communication and writing skills
Benefits Snapshot:
- Medical, dental (100% paid for employee & family), and vision insurance
- 401(k) with match + profit sharing
- HSA with employer contributions & FSA options
- Free parking or public transit pass
- Mental health, wellness programs, and long-term care coverage
Location & Culture:
This firm is headquartered in Salt Lake City and embraces a mountain-west lifestyle—perfect for attorneys with ties to Utah or those looking to relocate for outdoor adventure and a more balanced pace of life.
