About this role
Morgan & Morgan's Workers Compensation department in Nashville is looking for an attorney to manage a substantial caseload across the full litigation spectrum—from initial claims through trial. You'd spend most of your time on the pre-suit side, handling case development, drafting discovery and motions, and working with expert witnesses, while also supporting senior attorneys once matters move into active litigation. The role requires you to guide clients through their cases, prepare for depositions and court appearances, and develop strong written and oral advocacy skills in a high-volume environment.
You'll need at least two years of workers compensation experience and an active Tennessee bar license, with multiple state licenses preferred. Experience in wage and hour claims is a plus. The position suits someone who is organized, client-focused, and comfortable managing competing priorities across many cases simultaneously—a self-starter who can work independently on pre-litigation matters and collaborate effectively with more senior team members.
Morgan & Morgan offers full-time employees medical and dental insurance, a 401(k) plan, paid time off, and paid holidays as part of their benefits package.
