Job Description

In-House Counsel (REMOTE)

Job Title: In-House Counsel (Remote)

Company Type: Premier Personal Injury Law Firm 

Work Environment: Fully Remote / High-Growth / Digital-First Operations

The Role

We are seeking a specialized In-House Counsel who loves the "law" side of lawyering. Unlike traditional client-facing roles, this position is focused on the firm's internal litigation needs. You will be responsible for navigating the firm through minor's compromise petitions , fee arbitrations , and representing the firm in legal disputes or lawsuits .

The ideal candidate is a "writer's lawyer" who is equally comfortable arguing a complex motion before a judge as they are drafting a meticulous brief.

Key Responsibilities

• Specialized Petitions: Manage and execute the firm's minor's compromise petitions from start to finish, ensuring court approval for high-value settlements.

• Firm Litigation: Represent the firm's interests in fee arbitrations and internal or external lawsuits where the firm is a party.

• Heavy Motion Practice: Research, draft, and argue high-level motions. This role is significantly more motion and hearing-driven than client-facing.

• Internal Advisory: Collaborate with the in-house legal team to mitigate risk and provide counsel on firm-wide legal strategy.

• Remote Advocacy: Appear at hearings (primarily via CourtCall/Zoom) and maintain a rigorous litigation schedule from a remote environment.

Qualifications

• Licensure: Active member in good standing with the California State Bar (Required).

• Experience: 5+ years of litigation experience. Prior in-house experience at a law firm is highly preferred.

• Litigation Specialist: You must genuinely enjoy the litigation process-specifically the thrill of oral advocacy and the precision of written motions.

• Technical Writing: Exceptional writing skills with a proven track record of winning contested motions.

• Subject Matter Expertise: Familiarity with CCP, fee dispute resolution, and the procedural nuances of California probate/civil courts regarding minor's compromises.

• Remote Proficiency: Ability to manage a heavy calendar of hearings and deadlines autonomously.

Why Join This Team?

• Focus on the Craft: If you prefer the courtroom and the library to constant client intake and case management, this is your ideal role.

• Elite Support: Work as part of a sophisticated in-house team within one of California's most successful personal injury practices.

• Flexibility: A rare opportunity to handle high-level litigation and "heavy lifting" motion work in a 100% remote capacity.

Compensation: Competitive salary and benefits package commensurate with litigation experience ($125-175k salary).

Please submit your resume along with a recent writing sample (e.g., a noticed motion or trial brief) that showcases your persuasive writing abilities.

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Employer paid health, dental, vision
• 401k
• Flexible PTO
• Work remotely
