Job description

Our client is a highly regarded north Dallas based plaintiff litigation firm with a national footprint, focused on representing individuals and families in catastrophic injury and wrongful death matters—particularly those involving medical negligence.

Consistent exposure to complex, high-value cases ready for trial

A firm culture that prioritizes litigation over settlement when appropriate

Strong internal support so attorneys can stay focused on strategy and advocacy

The ability to make a real difference in the lives of clients facing life-altering circumstances

What They’re Looking For

7+ years of experience handling plaintiff-side medical malpractice cases

Proven ability in trial work and courtroom advocacySignificant experience taking physician depositions (writing samples/transcripts will be requested)

Strong analytical, writing, and client communication skills

Active Texas bar license in good standing

J.D. from an accredited institution

Competitive base salary + bonus structure tied to case outcomes

Comprehensive medical coverage + FSA/HSA options

401(k) plan

Life insurance

PTO and paid holidays
