Insurance Litigation · 3–5 Years of Experience · California Bar Admission Required For a mid-level litigator, the most critical career milestone is transitioning from a back-room researcher to a front-line advocate. This position offers a direct path to client-facing autonomy on behalf of some of the largest companies in the global insurance sector. An elite, Am Law 50 national firm is seeking an ambitious insurance litigation associate to join its high-performing practice group in Los Angeles. - The Work You will step into a steady, sophisticated volume of high-stakes insurance litigation spanning multiple lines of business-including annuity, health, life, long-term care, disability, and property & casualty. This is not a role where you will be siloed in a single niche. Your day-to-day work will involve: • Managing complex insurance disputes from inception through resolution, with a level of autonomy that matches your capability. • Working directly with major industry clients rather than having your communication filtered through multiple layers of partnership. • Collaborating on a broad array of regulatory, compliance, market conduct, and high-value claims issues. • Engaging early in meaningful business development opportunities, backed by the institutional resources of a dominant national platform. Who This Is For This role is designed for a motivated, entrepreneurial attorney with 3 to 5 years of litigation experience who thrives when given room to run. You are someone who wants the safety net of a brilliant, collaborative team but is actively looking to build your own professional reputation and courtroom skills. While a background in insurance defense or coverage is highly valued, the firm welcomes exceptional commercial litigators who possess sharp analytical skills and a desire to dominate a stable, lucrative practice area. The Platform You will be joining a top-tier national firm recognized as an absolute powerhouse in the insurance sector. The firm stands out for its deliberate investment in associate development-ensuring that mid-levels are not just billing hours, but are actively integrated into industry groups and client pitches early in their careers. If you want a clear runway to partnership or a highly marketable national profile, this is the platform that can provide it. Location & Flexibility The firm operates on a balanced hybrid model, asking attorneys to work from the downtown Los Angeles office three days per week. This structure preserves the mentorship, relationship-building, and collaborative energy necessary to advance your career while respecting your individual flexibility and work-life balance. Compensation and Benefits • Base Salary: $255,000 to $300,000, determined by your relevant skills, training, and depth of experience. • Bonus: Eligible for both productivity-based and discretionary performance bonuses. • Benefits Package: A comprehensive, elite-tier package including premium health, life, accident, and disability insurance; a robust 401(k) plan; and a generous time-off policy.
