Gpac

Confidential Medical Malpractice Attorney

Plaintiff-Side | 5-7 Years' Experience Los Angeles, CA

Why This Opportunity Is Different:

This is a rare opportunity to join a well-respected plaintiff-side medical malpractice practice handling complex, high-value cases with real impact. The firm is intentional about growth, selective about the matters it takes on, and committed to giving attorneys true ownership of their cases-not just pieces of files.

If you're an experienced med-mal attorney who wants meaningful responsibility, trial exposure, and long-term upside without sacrificing quality of life, this role is worth a conversation.

The Role

Handle plaintiff-side medical malpractice matters from intake through resolution

Analyze medical records and liability issues; work closely with medical experts

Draft pleadings, motions, discovery, and substantive filings

Take and defend depositions (including treating physicians and experts)

Participate in mediations, settlement negotiations, and trial preparation

Maintain direct client relationships with a high level of autonomy

Collaborate with a tight-knit litigation team that values strategy over volume

What the Firm Is Looking For

5-7 years of plaintiff-side medical malpractice experience

Strong working knowledge of California med-mal law and procedures

Confident, independent file management skills

Excellent writing, analytical, and advocacy abilities

Trial experience or meaningful trial preparation exposure strongly preferred

Active California Bar license in good standing

Compensation & Incentives

Base salary: $180,000 - $240,000 , depending on experience

Performance-based bonuses tied to case results and contributions

Competitive benefits package

Long-term growth and advancement opportunity within a stable plaintiff-side practice

The Bottom Line

This is a career-building role for a plaintiff-side medical malpractice attorney who wants to be trusted with sophisticated cases, valued for their judgment, and positioned for long-term success.
