About the Role

Looking for a legal career that gives you work-life balance and uncapped commissions without the billable-hour model? As an Attorney in Health Plan Recovery, you will represent the reimbursement interests of some of the nation's largest health plans and resolve subrogation matters involving ERISA, non-ERISA, and fully insured plans.

You will develop negotiation strategy, communicate directly with plaintiff attorneys, carriers, and adjusters, and move matters from case positioning through settlement. Cases may involve motor vehicle accidents, premises liability, medical malpractice, and workers' compensation.
