General Liability Attorney

General Liability Attorney | Jacksonville | $120,000 to $180,000 (depending on experience) 1,900 hours. If you have spent a few years in defense work, you know exactly what that number means and what it does not. It means your evenings are mostly yours. It means a target you can actually hit without living at your desk. It means the firm has done the maths and decided a sustainable lawyer is worth more than a burnt out one. That is the starting point for this role, not a perk buried at the bottom of the offer letter. I am recruiting for a Jacksonville firm building out its general liability defense team. The work is real and varied: premises liability, auto negligence, bodily injury, negligent security, wrongful death and wider civil litigation. The kind of caseload that keeps you sharp without grinding you down. And Jacksonville itself is part of the pitch. Strong defense work, good firms, a real city to build a career in, and a cost of living that means your salary actually stretches, all without the constant noise of Miami or Tampa. What is on offer: A 1,900 billable target, set honestly so you can plan a life around it Salary from $115,000 to $160,000 plus benefits Strong general liability and insurance defense work Real ownership of your files, not scraps handed down the chain Genuine partner access and training, not a name you see twice a year Straight conversations about workload, support and expectations before you commit to anything What they are looking for: At least one year of litigation experience General liability, insurance defense, auto, premises, bodily injury or wider civil litigation experience Someone who wants to handle files properly, start to finish Strong communication, writing and client service This is for the attorney who wants a serious litigation career and a life outside it, and has stopped believing those two things have to be a trade. In Jacksonville, with this firm, they do not. #J-18808-Ljbffr
