We're hiring experienced Workers' Compensation Defense Attorneys for a well-established California defence firm with over 30 years of exclusive WC practice. The firm is in active growth mode, expanding its attorney team to handle increasing claim volume across the state. You'll manage a full caseload of WC defence matters from inception to resolution, representing employers, insurance carriers, and third-party administrators before the WCAB. Day to day, that means attending hearings (MSCs, status conferences, lien conferences, trials), taking doctor depositions, drafting motions and settlement documents, negotiating resolutions, and maintaining regular communication with adjusters and employer contacts. The firm operates a fully paperless, remote-first environment with digital case management and dictation software provided. What makes this firm different: a collaborative billing model where every attorney is paired with a legal assistant who bills hours on their behalf. This means hitting quarterly bonus thresholds is realistic and consistent, with attorneys earning up to $52,000 per year on top of base salary. The firm has been recognised as a Great Place to Work for five consecutive years, and offers a clear promotion track from Associate through to Senior Managing Partner. This role suits attorneys who have built their career in California workers' compensation defence and want to do the same work in a modern, remote-first firm that rewards production and invests in growth.
