Litigation Associate

Litigation Associate Attorney

Dallas, TX

$140,000 to $180,000

General Liability Defense

You've outlined plenty of depositions. How many did you get to take?

At this firm, the answer becomes most of them.

I'm recruiting a Litigation Associate for the Dallas office of a national defense firm.

Here's why this one is worth your attention.

The job is yours to run

• Your name on the file, from first report to resolution.
• You set the case strategy. Then you explain it to the adjuster and the insured, and you stand behind it.
• You take the depositions, argue the motions and make the calls.
• Clients get to know you, which is how a defense career really grows.

The docket keeps you sharp

• Premises liability, transportation, products liability, professional liability, and more.
• A trucking collision and a product failure ask very different questions about causation.
• Each case needs a specific case strategy, and you'll be putting this together.

The firm

• A national firm with a strong reputation for litigation defense. That name opens doors.
• The atmosphere is relaxed. The standard of work is not. People here get results without the office feeling like a pressure cooker.

The pay, explained

• $140,000 to $180,000.
• That range is deliberate. The firm is hiring across two levels. Around three years of experience sits toward the lower end. An associate ready to carry a full docket independently sits toward the top.

You'll do well here if

• You have 3 years of litigation experience, ideally in insurance defense or general liability.
• You want a say in how a case is run, not only in what goes into the brief.
