Job DescriptionJob Description

T. Madden & Associates, P.C. is actively seeking a Senior Litigation Attorney to join our expanding personal injury firm. Imagine working with a law firm where you can drive your bonuses while working in a POD structure and benefiting from a hassle-free environment that eliminates concerns about HR, expenses, and facilities. The ideal candidate for this role will have a robust background in personal injury trial experience (both as 1st chair and 2nd chair), trial preparation, motions practice, and experience in supervising less seasoned attorneys and staff. There is significant potential for increased earnings beyond the base salary. We are looking for a candidate who can make independent decisions, foster the growth of our litigation team, and earn substantial compensation.


While the competitive salary is certainly enticing, it's only part of what makes this opportunity so appealing. You'll thrive in an environment where the firm not only excels as a courtroom advocate but also champions our local community. We pride ourselves on being the law firm that shows injured clients they can find top-tier legal assistance right in their neighborhood, without needing to venture into areas like Buckhead. Your success here will be limited only by your ability to handle cases, bring in clients, and lead a team of capable attorneys and paralegals.


We take pride in representing injured plaintiffs and securing significant compensation in various cases such as motor vehicle accidents, trucking accidents, motorcycle accidents, false imprisonment, premises liability, and medical malpractice claims. Your prior experience in personal injury trials and negotiation skills will play a key role in boosting your bonuses, in addition to a generous base salary. For the right candidate, there is potential to become an equity partner at T. Madden & Associates, P.C. We have multiple offices, including our newest location in downtown Decatur, designed to make your hard work more convenient.


To qualify for this position, you must have litigated at least 5 personal injury jury trials. Our firm is committed to ongoing innovation and ensuring all employees find fulfillment in their work on behalf of our clients. Our technology and approach are on par with larger firms while maintaining the flexibility and camaraderie of a smaller practice. Candidates will need to undergo a background and reference check.

  • Dental Insurance
  • Life Insurance
  • Short-Term Disability Insurance
  • 401(k)
  • Ample opportunities for bonuses

Your compensation will be re-visited on a regular basis to ensure competitiveness with the market. There are also bonuses given based on the amount you have brought to the firm. Further incentives are based on the production of the department.
Compensation:

$200,000+ in total compensation
