We have secured multi‑million dollar verdicts and settlements for clients across every market we serve.

This role sits inside our Tulsa office. You’ll work side‑by‑side with our litigation team to tackle complex fact, legal, and logistical issues — managing cases from the claim process through trial. Our commitment to each client is a top daily priority, and we’re looking for attorneys who share that same dedication.

What You’ll Do

• Manage plaintiff personal injury caseloads from the claim process through litigation and trial
• Interact and negotiate with insurance companies and defense counsel
• Communicate and maintain positive client relationships throughout the life of each case
• Draft correspondence, pleadings, discovery requests and responses, settlement agreements, and other legal documents
• Conduct and defend depositions
• Represent clients in mediations, arbitrations, and jury trials

What We’re Looking For

• Active Oklahoma Bar license (required)
• At least one year of personal injury litigation experience preferred; strong candidates with relevant civil litigation background considered
• Eligibility to obtain Missouri Bar license (UBE score or reciprocity)
• Ability to excel in a fast‑paced, high‑volume environment
• Exceptional organizational, prioritization, and time‑management skills
• Committed to providing responsive and compassionate client service
• Outstanding written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills

Growth & Leadership

• Mentorship: Shape the next generation of attorneys at the firm
• New markets: Help open and build offices as the firm expands

Why DM Injury Law

• Uncapped earning potential: High performers earn above the range. Origination income adds directly on top — no ceiling.
• Origination from day one: One‑third of the firm’s fee on every case you bring in. No partnership track required.
• No billable hour requirements: Contingency practice — you focus on client outcomes, not clock entries.
• Dedicated support staff: Paralegals, case managers, and intake behind every attorney.
• Quarterly bonus: Performance bonuses paid every quarter — not just once at year end.
• 401(k) with 4% match: Fully matched up to 4% — above the law firm average.
• Full benefits from day one: Health, dental, and vision coverage.
• Sustainable caseloads: Realistic workloads by design. Long‑term career, not a burnout cycle.
