Job description

Insurance Defense Attorney | Millburn, NJ (Remote) – $180K

Location/Schedule: Millburn, NJ (Remote)

Practice: New Jersey insurance defense — general liability, auto, and casualty files that are tried, not just settled. PIP and no-fault work sits in the same office if you want it.

Our client has defended insurers in New Jersey since 1925. It is a trial firm. A member of the firm is certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a Civil Trial Attorney. There is no billable-hour requirement. Production is measured on receivables and collections, which is why associates here actually get into court.

Why You Should Join:
  • Defense Trial Work You Will Not Find at Most New Jersey Shops – A 100-year trial firm. Courtroom time is the job, not a reward after year eight.
  • No Billable-Hour Requirement – The firm tracks receivables and collections. Your time goes to the file, not to padding a timesheet.
  • Certified Civil Trial Attorney in the Office – Front-row access to a New Jersey Supreme Court–certified trial lawyer, not a partner who last tried a case a decade ago.
  • A Century of Carrier Work – Insurer defense in New Jersey since 1925. The docket is already there.
  • $180K in Millburn – Suburban New Jersey pay for someone who wants to try cases, not commute to Newark for volume files.
What You’ll Actually Do:
  • Defend general liability, auto, and casualty claims in New Jersey state court.
  • Take and defend depositions.
  • Prepare and try cases, including motions in limine and trial briefs.
  • Handle PIP and no-fault litigation if that is part of your docket.
  • Report to carriers on exposure and trial risk.
Requirements:
  • JD and active New Jersey bar
  • 3–7 years post-bar insurance defense or civil litigation — current Associate, Counsel, or Partner
  • Law clerks and summer associates will not be considered
  • At least one deposition taken, and a willingness to try cases

No one fits every box perfectly — if you’re a practicing Insurance Defense attorney who wants New Jersey trial work, no hour target, and $180K in Millburn, let’s talk confidentially.
