Insurance Defense Litigation Associate | 4+ Years’ Experience | Hybrid (2 Days Remote)

A fast-growing, data-driven litigation firm with a Mid-Atlantic footprint is expanding its New York City insurance defense group and hiring multiple litigators this quarter . The firm’s pitch to clients is giving them an edge, and it backs that up with predictive analytics, a broad practice base, and a team that works together.

Why This Firm Stands Out

Analytics are part of how cases get handled. The firm builds quantitative models from its own litigated and settled matters to understand jury makeup, predict case outcomes, and budget accurately for clients. You’ll be applying data to strategy, not guessing.

You’ll work with a wide range of clients. The client base runs from risk executives at Fortune 500 companies to small business owners, across many industries. The firm tailors its approach to each client instead of using a one-size-fits-all model.

Your work won’t be limited to one niche. The firm’s practice reaches well beyond standard defense files, with matters in:

• General and premises liability
• Construction and construction defect
• Liquor liability and dram shop
• Personal injury and product liability
• Professional liability
• Commercial transportation
• Insurance coverage
• Employment and more

The platform is multi-state. Offices across New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania give you the backing of a larger regional firm, along with the NYC team’s day-to-day collaboration.

The firm is growing. Headcount is expanding, and so are the opportunities to take on responsibility.

The Role

You’ll join the New York City team and handle your own docket of insurance defense matters from pleadings through resolution. You will:

• Manage a caseload from pleadings through discovery, motion practice, and settlement or trial preparation
• Take and defend depositions and appear at conferences and hearings
• Draft pleadings, discovery, and dispositive motions
• Evaluate exposure and recommend strategy to carrier and corporate clients
• Work closely with partners and a collaborative team

What You Bring

• 4+ years of litigation experience, preferably insurance defense
• J.D. from an accredited law school
• Admission to the New York State Bar
• Experience in New York State courts, including depositions and motion practice
• Strong research, writing, and negotiation skills
• Comfort being handed real responsibility and managing your own files

Salary and Other Compensation:

The annual salary for this position is between $150,000 - $220,000. Factors which may affect pay within this range include geography/market, skills, education, experience, and other qualifications of the successful candidate.

Benefits:

The Company offers the following benefits for this position, subject to applicable eligibility requirements:

• Medical Insurance

• Dental Insurance

• Vision Insurance

• Paid Time Off

• Sick & Safe Leave

• Vacation Time
