Analyze claim files, assess exposure, and develop litigation strategies aligned with business and claims objectives. Collaborate closely with claims counsel, underwriting teams, and other internal stakeholders. Maintain clear and professional communication with clients, courts, and opposing counsel. Utilize dedicated support staff and internal resources to advance case strategy and promote efficient file handling. MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school. Active membership in good standing with the State Bar of California. Prior civil litigation experience with courtroom appearances. Trial experience or significant hands‑on litigation responsibility. Strong legal research, writing, and analytical skills. Ability to travel throughout Northern California for hearings, depositions, and trials. Excellent communication and collaboration skills. PREFERRED EXPERIENCE Litigation experience involving real property, title insurance, escrow disputes, lien priority, quiet title actions, or foreclosure‑related matters. Background in bankruptcy litigation or adversary proceedings. Familiarity with claims handling or insurance defense work, especially within a title insurance environment. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS This position has the potential to earn compensation in the range of $150,000 - $190,000 annually based on location and job‑related factors such as skillset and experience. Actual rate may vary within the range provided, depending on a number of factors, including skillset, experience and location.
