    Description

    Success Matcher Recruitment is proud to partner with our client, a premier California legal firm that has defined excellence in workers compensation defense. With a reputation for aggressive advocacy and a "Great Place to Work" award streak spanning five consecutive years, our client offers a stable yet dynamic environment for legal professionals.

    The Role

    We are seeking high-caliber Hearing Representatives to manage a robust caseload of lien files. This is not a back-office role; you will be the face of the firm before WCAB judges, navigating complex medical-legal disputes and driving claims to an expedient resolution.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Caseload Management: Independently handle lien files from initial review through final resolution, including medical record review and apportionment analysis.

    • Disability Rating: Utilize the AMA Guides to accurately rate permanent disability.

    • Litigation & Appearances: Represent insurance carriers, TPAs, and employers at Mandatory Settlement Conferences (MSC), Status Conferences, and Walk-Through settlements.

    • Negotiation: Lead strategic negotiations with lien claimants to mitigate costs and close files.

    • Legal Drafting: Prepare high-quality petitions, declarations, position statements, and settlement documents.

    Qualifications

    • Experience: 3–20 years of California Workers Compensation defense experience specifically as a Hearing Representative.

    • Technical Expertise: Mastery of the AMA Guides and experience with substantive medical lien hearings (not just copy liens).

    • Advocacy: Proven track record of appearing before WCAB judges and arguing effectively on your feet.

    • Workflow: Proficiency in digital, paperless environments and strong written communication for client reporting.

    Why Join Our Client?

    • True Remote Flexibility: Fully remote setup with provided equipment (laptop, monitors, keyboard).

    • Specialized Support: Work under a dedicated Hearing Rep Management team (Megan and Z)—you are a core part of the practice, not an afterthought.

    • Firm Stability: An established 30-year history with the momentum of a firm currently in a 20% growth phase.

    • Full Benefits: 401(k) with employer contribution, comprehensive medical/dental/vision, Life/Disability insurance, FSA, and PTO.

    Are you ready to join a firm where your expertise in lien resolution is backed by industry-leading resources?
