Construction Defect Attorney

$130k - $185k

Distinct | North America

Construction Defect Attorney | Jacksonville | $130,000 to $185,000

If you are already doing construction defect work in Jacksonville, you probably know the market is not short of firms that say they handle construction litigation.

The difference is whether they actually give attorneys the support, case quality, and partner access to become properly good at it.

This is a confidential role with a Jacksonville litigation team that needs an attorney who understands construction defect, construction litigation, property damage, contractors, subcontractors, experts, reports, inspections, and the small factual details that somehow become very important six months later.

It is technical work.

Layered too.

Sometimes messy.

But if you like litigation where the facts matter, the experts matter, and you are not just moving the same basic file around every day, this is worth a conversation.

What’s on offer

• Salary from $130,000 to $185,000

• Hybrid working

• Strong construction defect and wider construction litigation work

• Meaningful case responsibility

• Partner support without being watched over every five minutes

• Direct client contact

• A chance to deepen a specialist litigation niche that should age well in Florida

• The kind of experience that makes your resume sharper, not just longer

What they’re looking for:

• Florida Bar admission

• Ideally 3 plus years of construction defect or construction litigation experience

• Strong experience with discovery, experts, depositions, reports, mediation, hearings, or inspections

• Someone who can deal with complicated facts without turning every email into a legal novel

• A litigator who wants to keep improving, not just survive another billable year

This is a good move for an attorney who wants to become more marketable in a specialist area, while still doing proper litigation work.

If this sounds close to what you have been looking for, feel free to apply and I will be in touch. Or, if you would rather have a quick confidential conversation before sending a resume, you can reach me on LinkedIn or call me directly on View phone number on click.appcast.io.
