As the ‘go to’ litigation firm for dozens of domestic and international insurance carriers, as well as many large private clients, WSHB attorneys handle a wide spectrum of matters. On a daily basis, associates work closely with lead attorneys on all phases of litigation, from rapid response investigations following catastrophic losses, case evaluation and reporting, discovery and depositions, through trial presentation, with an emphasis on strategic thinking to meet client objectives. Recognized nationally for its commitment to diversity and an inclusive atmosphere, WSHB and the Las Vegas office provide attorneys a flexible work from home policy and the opportunity to collaborate with lead attorneys across offices as well as across a variety of practice areas. Excellent research and writing skills are a must. Experience in insurance defense litigation and general familiarity with carrier billing and reporting guidelines is preferred. Join an innovative firm and team of attorneys with a reputation for professional excellence that offer the flexibility and casualness of the modern legal practice.

Benefits include:

• A competitive salary package, including the potential for bonuses
• Insurance including medical, dental, vision, disability, life, and a flexible spending account
