Personal Injury Associate Attorney in Chantilly, Virginia at Right Path Law Group, PLLC

You have spent your first years in practice learning how a personal injury case actually gets resolved: the demand, the adjuster, the number that makes the client whole. Now you want your own docket, real settlement authority, a team that does the paperwork, and pay that goes up when you perform. That is this job.

Right Path Law Group is a growing personal injury and criminal defense firm serving Northern Virginia’s immigrant and working-class communities. Our PI department settled more than 1,000 cases last year and is adding attorneys because the inventory keeps growing. You will own a docket of pre-litigation and litigation matters from day one, negotiate directly with carriers, file and try the cases that deserve it, and do it with a dedicated support pod behind you: case managers, paralegals, a medical records specialist, and our Eve platform that drafts demand packages so your hours go to lawyering, not chasing records.

There is no ceiling on your earnings. You will have a competitive base salary, quarterly performance commissions on the fees you collect above a quarterly threshold, and origination credit on the cases you bring in. We pay 100% of your health, dental and vision premiums, match your 401(k), and cover your bar dues and CLE. If you are licensed in Virginia with at least one year of plaintiff or civil litigation experience and you are ready for a docket that is yours, let’s talk.

Compensation

$100,000 to $120,000 base salary depending on experience, plus quarterly performance commissions on collected fees above a quarterly threshold (uncapped), origination fees on cases you bring in, 100% employer-paid health, dental and vision insurance, 401(k) with a 4% match after one year, three weeks PTO plus firm holidays, Virginia State Bar dues and CLE paid, mileage reimbursed, and hybrid flexibility once your docket is running. Attorneys meeting our production targets earn well into the $130,000s in year one.
