• Draft and refine pleadings, motions, briefs, and other litigation documents with a high level of precision and legal judgment.

• Manage a substantial caseload effectively by prioritizing deadlines, coordinating discovery, and maintaining accurate matter progression within case management systems.

• Conduct depositions, argue motions, negotiate from a position of strength, and present cases effectively before judges and juries.

• Prepare clients, witnesses, and experts for testimony while ensuring each matter is trial-ready at every stage of the litigation process.

• Collaborate with firm leadership and legal support staff on case strategy, valuation, and trial execution for high-exposure injury claims.

• Demonstrate a proven ability to secure substantial plaintiff verdicts, including experience handling cases involving significant damages exposure.

Qualifications:

• 10+ years of experience practicing law with a strong concentration in plaintiff-side personal injury litigation.
• Verifiable first-chair or substantial trial experience in personal injury matters, including jury verdicts that can be documented.
• Demonstrated history of achieving major trial results, ideally including verdicts in excess of $5 million.
• Deep knowledge of civil litigation procedure, motion practice, discovery strategy, and trial advocacy.
• Strong legal writing skills with experience preparing briefs, motions, and other complex litigation filings.
• Proficiency with case management software and the ability to oversee files efficiently in a fast-paced legal environment.
• Licensed to practice law and in good standing with the applicable state bar, or eligible to meet admission requirements as needed.
