A well-established plaintiffs' firm known for handling high-value, complex litigation is looking to add a Litigation Associate to its Tampa team. This is a confidential search on behalf of a firm with a strong track record of achieving meaningful results for clients who have suffered serious harm. The firm values attorneys who are driven, thorough, and committed to client-centered advocacy.

About the Practice

The firm handles sophisticated, multi-party litigation on behalf of injured individuals and their families. Cases regularly involve extensive discovery, active motion practice, and preparation for — and participation in — trial, with a history of significant client recoveries.

What You'll Do

In this role, you will be involved across all stages of complex litigation, including:

• Conducting case investigations and developing the factual record

• Overseeing written discovery and document review processes

• Taking and defending depositions

• Authoring pleadings, motions, and legal memoranda

• Building trial strategy and participating in courtroom proceedings

Junior associates typically participate as supporting trial counsel, with a clear pathway toward increased courtroom responsibility, including lead trial roles, as skills advance.

Client-facing work is a meaningful part of this position. You will regularly engage with individuals and families managing serious and life-altering situations, and will be expected to approach those relationships with care, discretion, and professionalism.

What We're Looking For

• At least two years of experience on the plaintiff side of personal injury matters, with direct trial exposure

• Active Florida Bar membership in good standing

• Demonstrated ability to connect with clients from a wide range of backgrounds

• Strong written and analytical skills — submission of an original writing sample (brief or memo) is encouraged

Preferred Background

• Hands-on experience with motion practice, discovery, and depositions

• Judicial clerkship experience is a plus

• Exposure to complex or multi-defendant litigation is helpful but not required

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary: $120,000 – $185,000, with additional performance-based year-end compensation

• Fully employer-covered medical, dental, and vision insurance

• Four weeks of paid time off per year

• Short- and long-term disability coverage

• 401(k) plan with additional benefits
