Full-time role for: National Personal Injury Law Firm
Houston, TX 77055
Remote
full-time
$200,000 - $250,000
Rachel opened a "new" case file, pulled up the same motion to compel she wrote last month, swapped the caption, and filed it before lunch. That was a typical Tuesday.
She got hired because she's a strong writer. Then was given work that she can easily copy paste.
It's all too common of a setup for a motion attorney to walk into.
Now that Rachel's made the move, it's a Jones Act fight over seaman status one week, a Daubert challenge on a defense expert in an oilfield burn case the next.
The trial team here's goal is trial wins of 8-9 figures. Some cases have had verdicts won for over $400M. This means your work would show up heavily in courtrooms. And since the caseload is trial value focused versus PI Niche, the brief you wrote last month doesn't help this month.
What You'll Need
• Writing motions at a Plaintiff Personal Injury firm
• Licensed in Texas
• At least a few years in (a lot of years in works great too)
• Some stability in your tenure
What You'll Do
• Write motions on complex, high-value cases targeting 8-9 figure verdicts
• Handle Jones Act fights over seaman status
• Draft Daubert challenges on defense experts in oilfield, burn, and similar cases
• Brief novel issues across a varied caseload — not the same motion every month
What You'll Get
• Hybrid schedule with a ton of flex — cut out for your kid's football game without special sign-off
• Trial work that shows up in courtrooms (verdicts over $400M on record)
• Caseload variety — trial value focused, not PI niche repetition
• Direct partner access (interviews feel like conversations, not interrogations)
