We believe attorneys are most effective when they have excellent people around them, and we have invested in building a litigation team that provides that support.
We are looking for someone who takes ownership of their cases, exercises sound judgment, communicates well, and understands that excellent representation means both aggressively advocating for the client and taking exceptional care of them throughout the process.

What We’re Looking For
3–5+ years of personal injury litigation experience
Active license to practice law in Washington State
Jury trial experience strongly preferred
Strong knowledge of Washington tort law, insurance law, damages, civil procedure, and court rules
Experience taking and defending depositions
Strong legal research, writing, negotiation, and advocacy skills

Additional Information:
Jacobs & Jacobs is a family-owned firm that has served our community for more than 130 years. While we are proud of the results we achieve for our clients, we are equally proud of the way we treat people along the way.
Our firm culture is grounded in integrity, compassion, service, accountability, and doing the right thing even when no one is watching. We believe the practice of law can be both excellent and deeply meaningful, and we strive to create a workplace where attorneys and staff genuinely care about our clients and one another.
We are posting this opportunity with the Christian Legal Society because we believe many attorneys within the CLS community share those same values and may be looking for a place where they can build a long-term career, serve people during some of the most difficult seasons of their lives, and be part of a team that values character as much as professional excellence.
Jacobs & Jacobs is an equal opportunity employer, and we welcome qualified applicants from all backgrounds.
