The full description
We are looking for a Workers' Compensation Defense Attorney with 5+ years of experience to handle a full caseload of WC defense matters for prestigious national companies and professional sports teams. You'll join a firm with a family-oriented culture, transparent bonus structures, and a real path to partnership — four attorneys were promoted to partner in the last 13 months alone.
What will you be doing?
- Owning and managing a full caseload of workers' compensation defense files from investigation through trial
- Conducting depositions, attending hearings, and handling all aspects of case strategy
- Building and maintaining client relationships with the firm's BD bonus structure ($10/hr on all originated work)
- Billing 225+ hours/month with transparent monthly billing bonuses ($1,000 at 225 hrs + $40/hr above that)
- Mentoring junior associates through the firm's WC boot camp and shadow-the-partner programs
Key Requirements
- 5+ years of workers' compensation defense experience (California-focused practice strongly preferred)
- Active California Bar admission
- Ability to provide a realistic, sustainable monthly billing number (not an all-time peak)
- Views WC defense as a long-term career destination — not a stepping stone to plaintiff work or another practice area
- Precise total compensation expectation with clear definition (base vs. base + bonus)
