ABOUT THE ROLE

Our client is seeking an Insurance Defense Associate with 3-5 years of litigation experience to join their Atlanta office as part of their Global Insurance Department.

  • Trusted by major insurers for proactive, strategic claims counseling and litigation
  • Trial-ready attorneys with extensive experience in state and federal courts
  • Ability to bring in cross-practice expertise for multifaceted claims
  • Access to comprehensive national training and mentorship programs
  • Compensation is highly competitive and they consistently offer a higher range (typically $165K to $185K+, depending on experience)

QUALIFICATIONS

  • 3–5 years of litigation experience
  • Complex litigation, construction, mass torts, personal injury, or product liability experience is preferred
  • Some exposure to coverage work is a bonus
  • Strong writing and analytical skills
  • Admission to Georgia bar

About Us:
