This is a rare opportunity to be part of a different kind of law firm that values communication, precision, and people, and offers tremendous opportunity for professional growth and fulfillment. 

 

Who we are looking for.  

We are looking for an energetic, motivated, caring, and competitive attorney who wants to win for injured clients. Someone who thrives when the work matters, moves cases with urgency, and takes pride in delivering strong outcomes. This person brings high standards, loves progress, and wants to be part of a team that pushes each other to be great.

The right person is driven by helping clients rebuild, by advancing cases, and by securing meaningful results. They value our core values: Winning, Always Ready, Professional, Precision, High-Level Communication, Accountable, and Service. We will set you up with the tools, support, and resources to succeed, and we expect the same level of commitment to your own growth and the growth of the people you will mentor.

As an attorney in a leadership role, you will guide others, elevate team performance, and help shape what we are building as the firm continues to grow.

Qualified candidates will have:  

• Juris Doctor from an American Bar Association accredited law school and admission to the State of New York Bar. 

• Three (3) or more years of experience in plaintiff’s personal injury or personal injury insurance defense. Experience handling motor vehicle accident and premises liability cases is preferred.   

• Demonstrated strong technological and organizational skills, a willingness to learn, and effective interpersonal and communication skills.  

• Demonstrated ability to be compassionate, a willingness to embrace challenge, and a strong sense of self-direction, team-orientation, and ability to maintain composure under pressure.  

We are interested in candidates who are excited about the idea of learning and growing with us as we continue to build something new and different together.  

What we offer you that’s different. 

• Work Hours: Flexibility that supports balance and well-being along with the freedom to take on more when driving results.
• Location: Beautiful newly renovated office space located downtown (parking available onsite, at no charge).  

• Compensation: Competitive base salary supplemented by substantial performance-based compensation. High performers earn well above typical market ranges and there is no cap on total earnings. 

• Work Culture: We are highly growth and team oriented, which means that although we believe in working hard together, we also prioritize celebrating that effort and progress. We’ve built a beautiful, fun, and comfortable workspace for our staff to enjoy each day, and we have regular in-office and offsite team building events and happy hours to ensure we are keeping it all in perspective. 

• Career Opportunities: We are growing rapidly and joining us at this stage offers the opportunity to grow alongside the firm. As we expand, new roles and opportunities frequently arise. If you’re eager to learn and take on new challenges, we will support and encourage your development. 

• Generous Benefits: Includes 100% coverage of a single plan for medical and dental insurance, life insurance, as well as short-term and long-term supplemental disability. We also offer vision insurance, accident insurance, a 401(k) with firm contribution after one year, weekly and monthly team awards and recognition, summer hours, free onsite parking, and abundant paid time off. Our benefits package is regularly re-evaluated and continues to grow as part of our mission to provide an exceptional experience for both clients and team members.
