Personal Injury Attorney – Pre-Litigation

About Us

We are a plaintiff personal injury boutique practicing in Oregon and Florida, with our main office headquartered in Portland.

We specialize in trucking, motorcycle, and e-bike crashes.

Our team works remotely and is backed by a team of experienced case managers and support staff so our attorneys can focus on building strong claims and getting our clients the results they deserve.

We're growing our Oregon practice and looking for an experienced PI associate to take ownership of a pre-suit caseload.

The Role

Most of your time will be spent resolving cases pre-suit: evaluating claims, building damages, and negotiating with insurers alongside our pre-litigation team.

When a case doesn't resolve, you'll take it into litigation, handling filing, discovery, depositions, arbitration/mediation, and trial when needed.

This role is ideal for an attorney who is strong at pre-suit resolution and still comfortable carrying a case through the courtroom.

Manage a primarily pre-suit caseload of auto and premises liability cases

Evaluate liability and damages, and guide case strategy with our case managers

Negotiate settlements with insurance carriers

Decide when to file and move unresolved cases into litigation

Draft and respond to pleadings, motions, and written discovery

Take and defend depositions

Attend mediation and arbitration

Handle trial work when cases require it

Keep clients informed and supported throughout their case

Requirements

Active license in good standing with the Oregon State Bar (an active Washington license is a plus)

At least 5 years of plaintiff-side personal injury experience

Experience managing a pre-suit and litigation caseload

Experience taking cases from pre-suit through filing and trial

Civil motion practice and discovery experience, including drafting and responding to discovery, motions, and pleadings
