Bullies suck. Our law firm exists to do something about it. If you smell what we're stepping in, keep reading. Are you a relentless, client-obsessed trial lawyer who lives for the fight? Cowboy Country Law is searching for a skilled criminal defense attorney ready to saddle up, dig in, and do work that actually matters. If you're sharp under pressure, thrive in the courtroom, and get fired up about helping real people protect their freedom — we want to talk. We're a fast-growing criminal defense firm with a robust caseload spanning every corner of Wyoming. We're looking for the right lawyer to join us in Casper, Cheyenne, or anywhere in the state — remote-friendly for the right fit. This isn't a clock-in-clock-out gig (you will have a full caseload). This is a genuine opportunity to build something, provide advocacy that makes a real difference, and get paid well for doing it. We believe in investing in the people who invest in us. That means supporting your growth professionally, personally, and financially — and making sure the compensation reflects the contribution. If you help us push forward, we'll make it worth your while. You'll have legal assistant and paralegal support, along with a very robust tech-stack, but you need to be comfortable owning your caseload from entry of appearance to verdict, show up ready in the courtroom (trial experience preferred), and bring real passion for criminal defense work from DWUIs to serious felonies. Finally, we're true believers — you should be passionate about helping clients find justice and protect their freedom, and also excited by the personal and professional opportunities that come from working for a busy, fast-moving law firm.
