Plaintiff Worker's Comp Associate

$90000 - $150000 per year | Santa Ana, CA | On-site | Permanent

OC firm hiring an associate. No workers' comp experience required, strong bonus structure, bilingual a plus

A bit about us:

We're a community-focused workers' compensation and personal injury firm in Orange County, built on the belief that injured workers and accident victims deserve representation that actually cares. We're not a volume mill. Every client is treated as an individual with unique circumstances, and our lead attorney meets with clients personally and stays involved from intake through hearing. We serve the hard-working people of Santa Ana, Irvine, Costa Mesa, and the surrounding communities, and we take pride in being the kind of firm our neighbors recommend to each other.

Why join us?

This is a place where your work has a visible, human impact. You'll handle real cases for real people, get meaningful courtroom and hearing experience early, and work directly with an attorney who's invested in your growth. We back that up with a strong, performance-based bonus structure, so your effort is rewarded. If you've wanted to build a litigation skill set in a supportive, tight-knit environment rather than getting lost in a big-firm machine, this is it. No prior workers' compensation experience required. We'll train the right person.
