  • Roseland, NJ | $135,000
  • 195,000+ If you've built a solid foundation in personal injury defense but you're starting to want more ownership, better flexibility and somewhere you can genuinely continue developing your practice , this could be worth exploring.
You don't necessarily need to be unhappy where you are. Sometimes you just reach the point where you want to see what else is out there. The Opportunity I'm working with a well-regarded defense litigation firm that's looking to add an experienced Defense Attorney to its Roseland team. The firm has built a strong reputation for its defense work, but equally important is the environment they've created internally — collaborative, supportive and somewhere attorneys are trusted to take ownership of their cases. The position is hybrid , offering flexibility while still giving you access to experienced attorneys and a strong team around you. What Will You Actually Be Doing? You'll manage a varied caseload of personal injury defense matters from investigation through resolution , with plenty of hands-on litigation and client exposure.
Your work will include:
Managing personal injury defense matters from start to finish Taking and defending depositions Handling hearings and court appearances Reviewing medical records and assessing causation and damages Managing discovery under New Jersey court rules Leading settlement negotiations, mediations and ADR Developing case strategies and driving matters towards resolution You'll have real autonomy over your cases , without feeling like you're being left to handle everything alone. Who Are They Looking For? You'll need to be admitted to the New Jersey Bar with at least 3 years of personal injury defense litigation experience . Experience with premises liability and related claims would be particularly relevant, while New York Bar admission and Labor Law experience would both be useful additions. Ultimately, they're looking for someone who can independently manage their matters, communicate well with clients and still enjoy being part of a collaborative team. Why Consider It? Because a move should give you more than a different email address. Hybrid flexibility. More ownership. Strong support. Interesting litigation work. And room to continue developing your career. Compensation is $135,000

If you've started wondering whether there's a better fit out there, even if you're not actively applying yet, I'd be happy to tell you more. Send me your resume and I'll talk you through the firm, the team and what the opportunity could look like for you. And if this particular role isn't quite right, I work with firms across the East Coast and would be happy to have a confidential conversation about what you're looking for next. If you'd rather talk than apply, call me on 332 777 6411. I know court appearances, depositions and the small matter of actually billing your hours don't always leave much room in your day.
