A Day in the Life of an Associate Attorney
As a Workers' Compensation Associate Attorney in our Fall River office, your day begins with reviewing your calendar and preparing for appearance before the Massachusetts Department of Industrial Accidents while balancing legal precision with client advocacy.
You'll spend part of your day drafting legal recommendations, reviewing medical records, and analyzing employment documentation to build a sound case strategy.

Throughout the week, you'll manage your caseload independently, meet filing deadlines, and participate in negotiations - all while maintaining the highest standards of ethical and efficient defense. And with our hybrid work flexibility (after an introductory period), you'll have the ability to balance appearances with remote workdays tailored to your productivity.
