Job Description

Senior Trial Attorney - Premises Liability, Motor Vehicle

Senior Trial Attorney

Premises Liability & Motor Vehicle Litigation

Take the Lead on High-Stakes Litigation and Make an Impact

Are you a seasoned trial attorney looking for a platform where your courtroom skills, litigation expertise, and leadership are truly valued?

We are seeking an accomplished Senior Trial Attorney to join our growing litigation team and take a leading role in handling complex premises liability and motor vehicle cases. This is an exceptional opportunity to manage significant matters, try cases, mentor junior attorneys, and work alongside a team committed to delivering outstanding results for clients.

If you're looking for more than just another litigation role-if you're seeking meaningful trial opportunities, professional autonomy, leadership responsibility, and a clear path for continued growth-we'd like to hear from you.

Why Join Us?

  • Lead complex, high-exposure litigation matters from day one.
  • Take ownership of cases from intake through trial and appeal.
  • Enjoy substantial courtroom opportunities and hands-on advocacy.
  • Work directly with clients, experts, and key stakeholders.
  • Collaborate with experienced litigators in a supportive, team-oriented environment.
  • Mentor junior attorneys and help shape the future of the practice.
  • Be part of a firm that values excellence, professional development, and long-term success.
  • Opportunity for advancement and increased leadership responsibilities.

What You'll Do

As a key member of our litigation team, you will:

  • Manage a sophisticated caseload of premises liability and motor vehicle matters through all phases of litigation.
  • Develop and execute strategic case plans designed to achieve exceptional client outcomes.
  • Conduct legal research and draft persuasive pleadings, motions, briefs, and appellate filings.
  • Take and defend depositions, prepare witnesses, and develop compelling trial themes.
  • Lead mediations, settlement negotiations, arbitrations, and jury trials.
  • Collaborate with medical professionals, accident reconstruction experts, investigators, and other consultants to build strong cases.
  • Evaluate liability, damages, litigation exposure, and settlement opportunities.
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to clients through clear communication and practical legal guidance.
  • Mentor and supervise junior attorneys, paralegals, and support staff.
  • Contribute to practice growth through relationship building, networking, and business development initiatives.

What We're Looking For

Required Qualifications

  • Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school.
  • Active bar admission and good standing.
  • 6+ years of civil litigation experience with substantial experience in premises liability and motor vehicle litigation.
  • Proven ability to independently manage complex litigation matters from inception through resolution.
  • Strong deposition, mediation, and trial preparation experience.
  • Excellent legal research, writing, analytical, and oral advocacy skills.
  • Ability to effectively manage multiple priorities while maintaining exceptional client service.

Preferred Qualifications

  • First-chair or significant second-chair jury trial experience.
  • Federal court litigation experience and familiarity with federal procedures.
  • Experience working with medical experts, accident reconstructionists, and technical consultants.
  • Appellate experience or exposure to appeals.
  • Prior leadership, mentoring, or supervisory experience.
  • Interest in helping grow a thriving litigation practice.

The Ideal Candidate

You are a confident litigator who thrives in the courtroom and enjoys developing case strategy, advocating for clients, and leading teams. You take pride in delivering exceptional results, building strong client relationships, and mentoring the next generation of attorneys.

Most importantly, you're looking for a place where your experience is valued, your voice is heard, and your career can continue to grow.

Join Our Team

If you're seeking a role that offers challenging work, meaningful trial experience, leadership opportunities, and the support of a collaborative and respected litigation team, we encourage you to apply.

Bring your advocacy skills, trial experience, and passion for litigation-and help us continue delivering outstanding results for our clients.
