Lead Attorney, Personal Injury

Lead Personal Injury Attorney Global Placement Firm is conducting a confidential search for experienced Lead Personal Injury Attorneys to help establish and grow an innovative, technology-enabled plaintiff-side personal injury practice in California. This is an exceptional opportunity for attorneys with 3+ years of plaintiff-side personal injury experience who want to build and lead a practice without assuming the financial risks typically associated with launching an independent law firm. Our client is expanding its legal services and seeking entrepreneurial, client-focused attorneys who are passionate about representing injured individuals, achieving meaningful outcomes, and developing a modern approach to personal injury law. The ideal candidate combines strong personal injury case management experience, sound legal judgment, a commitment to exceptional client service, and an interest in helping shape a growing legal practice. As a Lead Personal Injury Attorney, you will have the opportunity to build and manage a plaintiff-side personal injury practice with access to established operational resources, technology professionals, marketing support, and capital to invest in client representation and case development. Unlike a traditional associate position, this role provides substantial autonomy over case selection, litigation strategy, client relationships, and practice development. You will represent injured clients throughout the legal process, from initial consultation and case evaluation through settlement negotiations, mediation, litigation, and trial when necessary. You will also collaborate with company leadership, software engineers, marketing professionals, and operations teams to develop a more efficient, client-centered personal injury practice. This position is particularly well suited for an attorney who has considered opening an independent law firm but prefers the support, infrastructure, and financial resources of an established organization.
