Careers

This is an opportunity for recent law school graduates to obtain real-world hands-on experience in a dynamic and challenging work environment. The position provides an opportunity to work closely with experienced personal injury litigation attorneys in a wide variety of complex and catastrophic personal injury cases. Fellows will be exposed to all aspects of personal injury litigation, including the opportunity to attend hearings, depositions, trials, and mediations. Fellows will receive training in all aspects of personal injury litigation from start to finish, including trials and even appeals, while also gaining valuable insight into the firm, our clients, and our one-firm culture.

Excellent oral communication skills are required and experience in moot court or mock trial organizations is a plus, although not mandatory. We look for students who are creative, eager to take on responsibility, and want to work with people who are as committed as you are and are equally energized by the success of their peers.

The position pays salary and benefits commensurate with the pay for a first-year associate at other plaintiff’s firms. After one year, Fellowship positions may be extended for an additional period of time or Fellows may be asked to join the firm as an associate depending on the hiring needs of the firm.
