Overview

Position Overview We are seeking an experienced Enterprise Litigation Attorney to join our plaintiff-side Enterprise Litigation Team (ELT). This attorney owns discovery and evidence development on assigned ELT cases, partnering closely with the team's first-chair attorney to build cases for successful resolution or trial. ELT cases are staffed and developed with the expectation that they may be tried. The Discovery Attorney plays a central role in that process by developing the evidence, taking and defending depositions, resolving discovery disputes, and assembling the trial-ready record. Because ELT handles matters across multiple states in partnership with affiliate firms, success also requires the ability to lead and influence attorneys and litigation teams who do not report directly to ELT. The Discovery Attorney must build strong working relationships, create alignment around case strategy, and move work forward across organizational and jurisdictional boundaries. This is a hands-on litigation role for an attorney who enjoys the investigative, strategic, and advocacy work of building significant personal injury cases. What You'll Own Own the Discovery Plan Develop and execute the discovery strategy for assigned ELT cases. Serve written discovery promptly after cases enter ELT, including interrogatories where permitted, requests for production, requests for admission, and jurisdiction-specific discovery. Identify evidentiary gaps involving liability, causation, damages, notice, corporate responsibility, and defenses. Analyze opposing parties' responses and productions for deficiencies, admissions, inconsistencies, and additional investigative opportunities. Prepare preservation and spoliation notices and develop strategies for obtaining electronically stored and other potentially transient evidence. Protect clients against inappropriate discovery involving medical history, social media, surveillance, and other personal information. Build the Record Through Depositions Prepare for, take, and defend party, fact-witness, corporate representative, expert, treating-provider, and other key depositions . Draft corporate representative/PMQ topics and develop examination strategies. Prepare clients and witnesses for testimony. Develop deposition outlines, exhibits, timelines, and impeachment strategies. Analyze testimony for admissions, inconsistencies, and evidence affecting liability, causation, damages, and trial strategy. Resolve Discovery Disputes Identify deficient discovery promptly and lead meet-and-confer efforts. Draft and argue motions to compel, protective orders, motions to quash, and other discovery-related motions. Handle disputes involving independent medical examinations, including applicable Rule 35 and state-law equivalents, scope, conditions, observation, and recording issues. Address privilege, third-party discovery, ESI, and other complex discovery issues. Maintain command of the discovery rules and procedural requirements applicable to assigned jurisdictions. Build the Trial-Ready Evidentiary Record Analyze medical, damages, employment, insurance, photographic, video, electronic, and other evidence to identify what matters to the case. Develop strategies to obtain third-party and electronic evidence, including surveillance and, when relevant, telematics, ECM/event data, dashcam footage, hours-of-service records, and commercial transportation evidence . Lead attorney-level expert discovery, including disclosures, reports, exchanges, depositions, and challenges. Identify the admissions, testimony, exhibits, and impeachment evidence needed for dispositive motions, mediation, settlement negotiations, pretrial proceedings, and trial. Ensure the first chair has a clear understanding of the evidentiary record, unresolved gaps, risks, and opportunities. Lead Across Affiliate Firms Work effectively with affiliate-firm attorneys and litigation teams across ELT jurisdictions, often without direct reporting authority. Es
