Insurance and attorney

Insurance Coverage Senior Litigation Associate | Hybrid – Florham Park, NJ | $160,000–$220,000

There’s a big difference between supporting litigation and actually being trusted to handle it.

If you’re an experienced Insurance Coverage Attorney looking for a role where you can manage cases, develop strategy, handle discovery and depositions, and represent clients through court proceedings, arbitrations and mediations, this is worth a look.

I’m working with an established, mid-sized New Jersey firm looking to add a Senior Litigation Associate to its Insurance Coverage team.

The Role This is a hands-on position combining insurance coverage, insurance defense and complex litigation/arbitration work.

You’ll be trusted to take responsibility for your matters rather than simply handling one piece of the litigation process.

Your work will include:

Handling insurance coverage and defense matters

Managing litigation and arbitration proceedings

Conducting complex legal research and coverage analysis

Drafting memoranda, motions and other litigation documents

Managing discovery and taking/defending depositions

Preparing matters for trial

Developing legal strategies and advising clients

Participating in court proceedings, arbitrations and mediations

In short, they’re looking for someone who is comfortable running with matters, making decisions and managing competing deadlines, while still enjoying the support of an experienced team.

What Are They Looking For? You’ll ideally have:

5+ years of litigation, arbitration and/or insurance/reinsurance experience

Admission to the New York or New Jersey State Bar

A JD with strong academic credentials

Experience with discovery, depositions, trial preparation and court proceedings

Excellent legal research and writing skills

Strong analytical, communication and organizational abilities

The ability to work independently while also contributing to a collaborative team

Why Might It Be Worth a Conversation? If you’ve built a solid foundation in insurance litigation but want your next move to give you more ownership, more substantive responsibility and greater involvement in strategy, this could be a natural next step.

You’ll be joining an established team handling sophisticated matters, with the opportunity to develop further as a senior litigator rather than simply adding another few years to your resume.

The firm offers a hybrid working environment and a salary of $160,000–$220,000, depending on experience.

I know depositions, court appearances, deadlines and billable hours don’t exactly leave attorneys with an abundance of spare time, so I’m always happy to work around your schedule.

And if this particular role isn’t quite right, I work with firms across the East Coast and would still be happy to hear what you’d want from your next move.
