Job description

Plaintiff's Personal Injury Attorney (5-20 Years Experience)

Location: Houston, TX (Relocation Assistance Available) Practice Area: Plaintiff's Personal Injury Only

We are partnering with a well-established plaintiff's personal injury firm seeking an experienced Plaintiff's PI Attorney to join their litigation team. This role is designed for a true plaintiff's attorney—a person whose practice has been primarily focused on plaintiff-side personal injury, not an attorney who handles PI as only a small portion of their caseload.

Ideal Candidate

• 5-20 years of plaintiff's personal injury experience


• Proven background handling PI matters from intake through resolution


• Currently practicing (or previously practiced) at a plaintiff-side PI firm


• Strong litigation, case management, and client communication skills


• Juris Doctor from a respected law school (e.g., Baylor Law School, University of Texas School of Law, or similar)


• Licensed and in good standing (Texas license preferred; relocation supported)

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Fresh caseload provided so you can ramp up thoughtfully over several months


• No pressure to immediately originate cases while onboarding


• Strong initial salary to ensure stability during the transition period


• Salary is phased out over time as fee income increases


• Attractive fee-split structure, including:




• Fees on cases you work on


• Enhanced fees on cases you originate and work


• Fees on cases you originate and refer internally within the firm

What You'll Be Doing

• Managing a plaintiff's personal injury caseload


• Handling litigation and pre-litigation matters


• Working closely with firm leadership and support staff


• Developing cases through resolution while maintaining high client service standards


• Optionally originating cases and building a personal book of business within the firm

Relocation

The firm is open to relocating the right attorney, allowing the search to extend beyond the Houston market.

All qualified applicants will receive consideration without regard to race, age, color, sex (including pregnancy), religion, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, military status, genetic information, or any other status protected by applicable laws or regulations.
