Silva Injury Law, Inc. California, United States (Central Valley & Central Coast; Bay Area; San Diego)

About the job

We’re Hiring California Personal Injury Attorneys (All Levels) — Clear Pay, Clear Expectations, Real Upside

Silva Injury Law is growing, and we’re looking for California-licensed personal injury attorneys at all experience levels — from newer attorneys with some PI exposure to seasoned litigators — who want clarity, accountability, and real upside.

Some personal injury experience is strongly preferred, but we are open to attorneys at different stages who are motivated, coachable, and ready to perform in a structured, high-support environment.

We operate on a pod-based system, where attorneys run focused teams and are compensated directly based on the value they generate, with full operational, marketing, intake, and staff support behind them.

If you’ve ever wanted to know exactly how you get paid and what success looks like, keep reading.

How Our System Works

Pods

Each attorney leads a pod — a small, focused unit responsible for its cases and results. Pods are treated like business units, with clear goals and strong support from the firm.

Compensation (Simple & Transparent)

• Attorneys earn 20% of the attorney fees generated by their pod

• Paid via a draw + monthly reconciliation system

• No year-end surprises

• No confusing bonus structures

Monthly reconciliation means:

• You receive a predictable monthly draw

• If your pod generates more than your draw, you’re paid the difference that month

• If a slower month occurs, it carries forward and balances out over time

Pod Tiers, Floors & Expected Compensation

We hire across all tiers, depending on experience and readiness.

Tier 1 — Elite Pods (Senior / High Performers)

• Annual floor: $6.0M in attorney fees

• Typical volume: ~20 cases/month

• Average fee: ~$21K–$22K

• 20% comp at floor: ~$1.2M annually

• Draw: Flexible and aligned with proven performance

Tier 2 — Mid Pods (Established, Scaling Attorneys)

• Annual floor: $4.3M

• Typical volume: ~20 cases/month

• Average fee: ~$18K

• 20% comp at floor: ~$860K annually

Tier 3B — Developing Pods (1+ Year PI Experience

• Annual floor: $2.5M

• Typical volume: ~20 cases/month

• Average fee: $10K–$12K

• 20% comp at floor: ~$500K annually

• Draw: ~$150K–$160K annually

• Annual floor: $1.5M

• Typical volume: ~15 cases/month

• Average fee: ~$10K

• 20% comp at floor: ~$300K annually

• Draw: Up to ~$120K annually

Floors are minimum expectations, not ceilings. Attorneys who outperform scale quickly.

Benefits & Support

In addition to performance-based compensation, we offer:

• Health, dental, and vision insurance

• 401(k) retirement plan

• California Bar dues paid

• Full administrative, intake, and case staff support

• Strong marketing and lead flow

Who This Is a Great Fit For

• California-licensed attorneys with personal injury experience (or early exposure)

• Attorneys who want clarity instead of guesswork

• Performance-driven lawyers who want their income tied to results

• Attorneys open to coaching, accountability, and growth

• Lawyers who want to build something long-term

Pod-Supported Attorney Track (For New Attorneys or Those Without PI Experience)

We are also hiring pod-supported attorneys.

If you are a newly licensed attorney or do not yet have personal injury experience, do not hesitate to apply.

Pod-supported attorneys work inside an established pod and are mentored directly by the pod attorney leader while supporting the pod’s cases.

This allows attorneys to learn the systems, develop their litigation and case management skills, and gain hands-on personal injury experience.

Most pod-supported attorneys are ready to transition into leading their own pod within their first year, at which point we build a pod around them.

Compensation for Pod-Supported Attorneys

• Starting salary typically $120,000+ depending on experience

• Performance bonuses and incentives available

• Full mentorship and development track toward leading your own pod

Please note:

We are not working with recruiters for this position.
