Our team at Atticus has built the largest Social Security Disability practice in the country, representing thousands of claimants every month. The secret to scaling this practice: pairing best-in-class lawyering with built-from-scratch software and operations, creating a new type of legal practice from the ground-up.
We’re now embarking on the same journey in personal injury, and we’re hiring a founding attorney to build out this practice. You’ll own our legal operations from end to end: selecting which cases we take on, setting case strategy, and representing clients from intake through resolution. You’ll manage a team of attorney and non-attorney professionals across intake and case management. You’ll report to and partner with our General Manager, Peter Bailinson, and together you’ll work closely with our CEO and Managing Attorney, Sam Byker.
On any given week, you may:
•
Directly represent severely injured clients in pre-litigation negotiation, mediation, or trial.
•
Partner with our marketing team to workshop our client-facing brand and how to differentiate ourselves from traditional incumbents.
•
Work with our product team to set the standards for after-hours phone support, determining the proper protocols and how to handle high-value cases.
This is a fundamentally different approach to practicing law. While some aspects of this job will look like work at a traditional law firm, you’ll also be building alongside software engineers, product managers, and operators whose full-time job is to grow your practice. You’ll also have the resources and the runway to meaningfully invest in the firm.
The ideal candidate is a seasoned attorney with years of personal injury experience who knows exactly how a plaintiff’s firm operates, understands how to improve it, and wants a well-capitalized shot at doing so.
