WHO WE ARE
Rafi Law Firm is a personal injury law firm based in Atlanta, Georgia. We focus on a small number of cases and seek to maximize the value of each case. We represent victims—people injured in tractor-trailer, commercial motor vehicle, and automobile accidents; people victims of crime in negligent security cases; and others who are seriously injured. We are a tight knit team of 5 lawyers and 8 staff members who work together to win cases for our clients.
In the last 8 years, we have recovered more than $160 million for our clients. We like to think that the cases work on are not run-of-the-mill, but interesting, challenging, and worthwhile. For example, one of our cases was the focus of the podcast “Betrayal” which (when it was released) was the #1 podcast on Apple Podcasts and is now streaming on Hulu. In 2024, we settled a $7.75 million slip and fall case, which by accounts, is the largest slip and fall recovery in Georgia. Many of our cases have been featured in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Marietta Daily Journal, 11Alive, and other publications. These are the type of cases that the person in this role will work on.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING TO HIRE
As a personal injury lawyer with our Firm, you would be responsible for all aspects of cases from sign-up to when the case resolves.
We are seeking a litigator with experience in personal injury litigation, either with a personal injury firm or an insurance defense firm.
Maybe most importantly, we want people who “buy in” to what we are doing here. We want people motivated to help people. We also want people who work hard, are empathetic to our clients, respectful to coworkers, and take pride and ownership in what they do. If that is you, we want you to work with us.
HOW WE PAY
In total, our non-partner lawyers typically make between $200,000-$400,000 per year. Associate lawyers have made as much as $600,000 in a given year. Our compensation package includes a $100,000 base salary, a % bonus / commission for successfully resolving cases, discretionary bonuses, health and vision insurance, and other benefits.
WHAT OUR STAFF SAYS ABOUT US
Because we are a small firm, we all get along well. We want someone that contributes to that culture. So, we asked what our current case managers and paralegals like about their jobs here. This what they said:
- “I like helping people through their tough times in a tangible way. You can tell you’re making a difference in their lives.”
- “I’ve worked at other firms and the biggest difference here is the attorneys. I like the people I work with, and we have the best lawyers of any firms I know of that do what we do.”
- “I like my independence. Everyone was quick to trust me and there is no micro-managing.”
- “I like that our clients count on me. A lot of them are really hurt and it makes me feel good when I’m able to help them get them what they need to help them recover and heal.”
- “I have worked in personal injury law for 17 years. I need to be challenged and learn new things at my job to be happy where I work. This firm allows me to do that in an environment where everyone has the same goals of helping people.”
