Litigation Associate

Prevail Recruiting

Litigation Associate - Insurance Defense Location: Dallas, TX Position: Hybrid Experience Level: 1-5 Years

About the Role A well-established Dallas litigation firm is looking for a motivated junior to mid-level associate ready to take on real responsibility from day one. This is not a document review role - you will be handling active litigation files, taking depositions, and working directly with partners and clients on case strategy. If you are billing 200+ hours a month at a volume shop and not getting the experience or compensation to match, this is worth a conversation.

What You Will Do
  • Handle your own active litigation docket in GL, auto, premises, and transportation defense matters
  • Take and defend depositions of parties, witnesses, and expert witnesses
  • Draft motions including summary judgment, motions in limine, and discovery motions
  • Attend hearings, mediations, arbitrations, and trials alongside experienced trial attorneys
  • Work directly with carriers and adjusters on case strategy and exposure evaluations
  • Receive hands-on mentorship from partners who are invested in your development
What We Are Looking For
  • JD from an accredited law school
  • Active Texas Bar license in good standing
  • 1-5 years of civil litigation or insurance defense experience
  • Some deposition experience - whether taking or defending
  • Strong writer with practical judgment
  • Motivated to grow - not just manage a docket
Why This Role
  • Hybrid schedule with real flexibility - not just two work from home days
  • Manageable caseload with direct partner access and mentorship
  • Comp structure that rewards performance - not just hours
  • Firms that invest in junior attorneys rather than burning through them
  • Real trial and deposition experience earlier than you would get at a volume shop

All applications are completely confidential. Your current employer will never know you reached out.
