Job description

Overview

🛡️ Insurance Defense Attorney | Atlanta, GA | Come Bill With the Braves

Are you an Atlanta insurance defense attorney who can draft a motion to dismiss before your coffee cools?

Do you secretly enjoy depositions?

Do you hear the words “premises liability” and think, let’s go?

Responsibilities

We’re working with several respected Atlanta firms looking for Insurance Defense Associates (2–8 years) who know their way around:

• Professional liability
• And the occasional “how did this even happen?” case

What You Bring

• 2–8 years of defense-side litigation experience
• Comfort taking and defending depositions
• Motion practice skills that actually move the needle
• Georgia Bar admission (non-negotiable unless you enjoy UPL discussions)
• Ability to manage a file without 47 check-ins per week

What You Get

• Real responsibility (not just doc review purgatory)
• Direct client contact
• Trial exposure (yes, actual courtroom time)
• Competitive base + bonus structure
• Hybrid flexibility depending on firm
• A team that understands that “urgent” and “manufactured urgency” are different things

Atlanta’s insurance defense market is busy. Car accidents aren’t slowing down. Construction projects aren’t shrinking. Claims are… well… very alive.

If you’re billing hard but wondering if there’s a better platform, stronger compensation, or fewer late-night “quick questions,” let’s talk.
