Plaintiff Personal Injury | Litigation | Texas We are conducting a confidential search for a Personal Injury Attorney to join a growing plaintiff-side litigation practice in Texas. This opportunity is for an attorney who wants meaningful ownership of cases, direct client responsibility, and substantive litigation experience from intake through resolution. The person hired will manage an active personal injury caseload, develop case strategy, handle discovery and depositions, appear in court and mediation, and work closely with paralegals and support staff to move matters forward efficiently. This is a strong fit for an attorney who wants to build deeper litigation experience while representing injured clients through some of the most difficult circumstances of their lives. What Success Looks Like Within the first 6 to 12 months, the person hired will be expected to: Take Ownership of Personal Injury Matters Manage assigned cases from intake through settlement or litigation. Maintain command of liability, damages, medical treatment, deadlines, discovery, and the next strategic step required to move each case forward. Drive Cases Through Litigation Draft pleadings, motions, discovery requests and responses, briefs, and other litigation documents. Move cases deliberately rather than allowing them to sit between procedural events. Handle Depositions and Court Appearances Prepare for and participate in depositions, hearings, mediations, and other litigation proceedings. As experience allows, take increasing ownership of depositions and courtroom advocacy independently. Analyze medical records, liability evidence, damages, insurance issues, and other case-specific information. Use that information to determine the best path toward resolution while maintaining appropriate pressure on opposing parties and carriers. Deliver Strong Client Communication Maintain regular contact with clients throughout the life of the case. Explain developments clearly, manage expectations, answer questions professionally, and help clients understand what happens next. Manage a High-Volume Caseload Without Losing Control Balance multiple active matters, deadlines, court settings, client communications, and litigation priorities. Success means cases remain organized and progressing even when volume increases. Work Effectively With the Litigation Team Collaborate closely with paralegals, legal assistants, senior attorneys, co-counsel, and other professionals involved in the matter. Delegate appropriately while maintaining personal responsibility for case progression and client outcomes. Prepare Cases for Resolution or Trial Build each matter with the expectation that it may need to be tried. Develop the evidence, testimony, written record, and litigation strategy necessary to create leverage in settlement discussions and prepare for trial when required.
