Associate Attorney

A well-established South Carolina law firm is seeking an Associate Attorney with 1–3 years of litigation experience to join its growing team.

This position will focus primarily on insurance defense, general liability, and civil litigation, with the opportunity to gain meaningful hands-on experience and work alongside experienced litigators.

Candidates with plaintiff-side litigation experience who are interested in transitioning to defense work are encouraged to apply. This could be a great opportunity for an attorney looking to broaden their litigation experience, develop their courtroom skills, and build a long-term career within a collaborative and growth-oriented environment.

What They're Looking For:

  • Previous experience in litigation
  • Strong writing, research, and communication skills
  • Admission to the South Carolina Bar
  • Interest in developing a career in defense litigation
  • Plaintiff-side attorneys interested in making the transition are welcome

Why Consider It?

  • Meaningful litigation and case-handling experience
  • Mentorship from experienced attorneys
  • Collaborative team environment
  • Hybrid work flexibility
  • Opportunities for long-term professional growth
  • Competitive compensation and benefits
