Twice-yearly performance bonus based on collected fees for matters you handle

The Role:

Manage pre-suit and litigated personal injury matters from intake through settlement or trial

Evaluate liability, damages, and case value, and drive litigation strategy and next steps

Draft pleadings, written discovery, and dispositive and non-dispositive motions

Take and defend depositions, including party and fact witness depositions

Prepare for and appear at hearings, mediations, and trial as needed

Communicate with clients, experts, and opposing counsel throughout the life of the case

Location, Schedule and Compensation:
