Job Description

Legal Investigator (Plaintiffs Mesothelioma)

L&W Recruiting – Plaintiff Litigation Firm

A leading plaintiff‑side law firm representing victims of mesothelioma and asbestos exposure is seeking a Legal Investigator to join its team. This role is ideal for someone who is naturally curious, compassionate, and skilled at gathering facts through meaningful conversations with clients and their families.

This position requires extensive travel , a strong ability to build trust, and excellent writing and research skills. The firm provides a 9‑month structured training program to ensure investigators are fully prepared for the unique demands of asbestos litigation.

What You’ll Do

  • Conduct in‑depth interviews with mesothelioma victims and their families
  • Gather detailed work histories, exposure timelines, and case‑critical facts
  • Travel frequently to meet clients across multiple regions
  • Draft clear, accurate investigative reports for attorneys
  • Research job sites, products, and exposure sources relevant to asbestos cases
  • Work closely with attorneys to support case strategy and development
  • Approach every interaction with empathy, patience, and professionalism

What You Bring

  • Strong writing, interviewing, and research abilities
  • High emotional intelligence and the ability to connect with victims and families
  • Comfort working with individuals facing serious illness
  • Ability to travel frequently and manage a dynamic schedule
  • Backgrounds that blend well include:
    • Blue‑collar or skilled trades experience
    • Industrial, construction, manufacturing, or hands‑on work environments
  • Backgrounds the firm is not seeking for this role:
  • Private Investigators
  • Former Police or Law Enforcement

Why This Role Matters

Mesothelioma cases rely heavily on personal histories and exposure details that only come from patient and family interviews. Investigators play a central role in uncovering the truth and helping families pursue justice.

Training & Growth

  • Comprehensive 9‑month training program
  • Ongoing mentorship from senior investigators and attorneys
  • Clear pathways for long‑term growth within the firm

Compensation & Logistics

  • Full‑time role with competitive compensation
  • Extensive travel required
  • All travel expenses covered
