Personal Injury Attorney

Our client is a well-established personal injury law firm serving accident victims and injured workers throughout Long Island and Queens. With more than a century of combined attorney experience, the firm has built a reputation for securing significant verdicts and settlements in car accident, medical malpractice, and employment law matters. The team is known locally for a hands-on, client-first approach—attorneys stay directly involved in cases from intake through resolution, rather than handing clients off to support staff. The firm operates on a contingency basis, meaning it only gets paid when its clients do, which keeps the focus squarely on outcomes.

Why join us?

This is an opportunity to practice at a firm where trial-tested partners are still actively working cases alongside associates, not just supervising from a distance. Attorneys here get real client contact and case ownership early, rather than being buried in a back office. The firm is selective about the caseload it takes on, which means attorneys can give each matter genuine attention instead of managing an unsustainable docket. It's a firm that has invested in its community presence and reputation over decades, giving new attorneys a strong platform and name recognition to work from. For an attorney who wants meaningful courtroom and negotiation experience without getting lost in a large, impersonal practice, this is a strong next step.

Requirements

• J.D. from an accredited law school and active license to practice law in New York
• 2+ years of experience in personal injury litigation (medical malpractice or employment law experience a plus)
• Demonstrated experience managing a caseload from intake through settlement or trial
• Strong negotiation skills, particularly in dealing with insurance carriers and adjusters
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex legal matters clearly to clients
