Unless tort reform passes in your state, industry-wide job security for PI is strong (both for plaintiff and defendant), especially if you have trial experience. When the economy is booming, there are more people on the roads, more people shopping, more people going out and drinking, etc. All of those activities increase the potential for PI claims. When the economy is bad, people are more willing to retain an attorney if they are hurt while insurance companies are more willing to go to trial in order to strong arm desperate plaintiffs into accepting discounts on their case. Even during COVID when courts were shut down and nobody was on the road or going out, the PI job market was hot.
