You will work closely with the partner leading the firm's New Jersey practice and manage a reasonable caseload of approximately 20–30 plaintiff personal injury matters.

- Approximately 2–3+ years of legal experience
- Prior plaintiff-side personal injury experience
- Experience handling New Jersey matters strongly preferred
- Ability to independently manage a caseload and move cases forward
- Strong communication, organization, and client-management skills
- Stable employment history preferred
- Reliable transportation and ability to commute to the New Jersey office
Compensation & Benefits
- Base salary: $120,000–$160,000, depending on experience
- Annual salary review/raises
- Discretionary year-end/Christmas bonus
- Additional percentage-based compensation opportunities depending on case origination/referrals
- Hybrid schedule: four days in-office with remote Fridays
