Alevistar Legal Search is conducting a search on behalf of one of Philadelphia's premier catastrophic personal injury law firms for an experienced Research & Writing Attorney to join its highly regarded Mass Torts practice.

This is an exceptional opportunity for an attorney who enjoys sophisticated legal research, persuasive writing, and complex litigation. The firm is seeking a talented writer who will play an integral role in developing appellate briefs, substantive motions, and legal arguments in high-stakes litigation.

• Exceptional written advocacy, analytical reasoning, and legal research skills.
• Ability to distill complex legal issues into clear, persuasive, and well-supported arguments.
