Position Overview

Farahi Law Firm is an award-winning personal injury firm dedicated to fighting for the injured and delivering exceptional legal representation. We are a fast-growing, client-centric team that values aggressive advocacy, innovation, and community impact. We are seeking a Senior Trial Attorney who is equal parts courtroom tactician, strategic mentor, and client champion. This role is a lead role in winning high-stakes cases for victims suffering catastrophic injuries, blending strategic litigation, relentless advocacy, and compassionate client service.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead high-value personal injury cases through every phase—intake to verdict.

  • Try cases to verdict involving catastrophic injuries, wrongful death, trucking accidents, and product liability.

  • Develop strategic trial themes that disarm the defense and move juries to action.

  • Conduct powerful depositions, cross-examinations, and courtroom arguments.

  • Collaborate with top expert witnesses, from accident reconstructionists to medical professionals and life-care planners.

  • Negotiate high-dollar settlements while preparing every case as if it's going to trial.

  • Mentor junior litigators in trial strategy, courtroom performance, and litigation excellence.

  • Communicate closely with clients, providing clarity, confidence, and compassion throughout the process.

Requirements & Qualifications

  • JD from an accredited law school.

  • Active California State Bar license.

  • 10+ years of plaintiff-side personal injury litigation experience (catastrophic injury emphasis).

  • Extensive jury trial experience, with a strong preference for 10+ trials to verdict.

  • ABOTA membership preferred; Board Certification in Civil Trial Law is a plus.

  • Demonstrated ability to secure $1M+ verdicts or settlements.

  • Mastery in litigation strategy, negotiation, and trial storytelling.

  • Technologically proficient: legal research (Westlaw/Lexis), case management (Filevine preferred).

  • Bilingual (Spanish/English) is a strong plus.

Who You Are

  • A strategic warrior—you play chess while the defense plays checkers.

  • A high-performer—you live for courtroom victories and thrive under pressure.

  • A client advocate—you humanize legal narratives and connect with juries.

  • A mentor and team builder—you lift others while raising the firm's collective game.

  • A mission-aligned leader—you uphold the highest standards of ethics, impact, and integrity.

Why Join Us?

  • Top-of-market compensation with lucrative performance-based bonuses.

  • Elite trial resources—expert witness support, litigation tools, and strategic backing.

  • Leadership opportunity within a rapidly growing litigation firm.

  • Client-centered culture focused on justice, not just judgment.

  • High-impact caseloads that shape law, transform lives, and elevate your career.
