• Foster a collaborative, accountable, and client-focused team culture

Qualifications:

• Juris Doctor (J.D.) from an accredited law school and active license to practice law
• Minimum 5 years of experience in personal injury law, with significant exposure to both pre-litigation and litigation matters
• Demonstrated success in managing attorneys and legal teams
• Excellent communication, leadership, and interpersonal skills
• Strong client management and consultation experience
• High emotional intelligence and ability to handle sensitive client issues
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
• Spanish language proficiency is a plus, but not required

What We Offer:

• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
• Hybrid work model (must be based in or near Washington, DC)
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with firm contributions
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• An opportunity to make a strategic impact within a growing and respected personal injury practice
