We are working closely with the leadership team at a highly respected California litigation firm as it continues to expand its Insurance Defense practice across Los Angeles.

This is an opportunity to join a firm that has built an outstanding reputation across California for high-level litigation work, long-term attorney development, and creating genuine pathways for attorneys to grow their careers rather than staying stagnant for years.

Unlike many firms in the space, this team heavily invests in mentorship, internal progression, and building future partners from within.

Highlights

• Established National litigation powerhouse with decades of success representing carriers, businesses, and insured clients across complex, high-exposure insurance defense litigation.
• Strong reputation throughout California for handling sophisticated litigation matters involving catastrophic injury, premises liability, construction defect, product liability, transportation, and general liability claims.
• Unique Buddy Program from day one — every attorney is paired with someone at a similar level of experience to help support onboarding, integration into the firm, and long-term success.
• Extremely lucrative confidential bonus structure that is genuinely one of the more attractive compensation models currently available in the market.
• Continued professional development and hands-on mentorship designed to accelerate your technical growth, litigation confidence, and long-term career trajectory.
• Multiple partnership tracks available depending on your goals and strengths, alongside an automatic Partner title after 8 years of practice — an unusually transparent advancement structure.

Why Attorneys Are Excited About This Firm

• Attorneys are given meaningful responsibility early while still receiving strong mentorship and support from senior attorneys and partners.
• Viewed as one of the top 100 feared law firms due to their reputation handling high-stakes, high- pressure defense litigation.
• Strong internal culture focused on collaboration rather than aggressive internal competition.
• Excellent long-term earning potential and genuine career stability.

The Role

• Handle insurance defense matters from inception through trial.
• Manage a variety of complex litigation files including general liability, catastrophic injury, transportation, premises liability, and other civil defense matters.
• Work closely with carriers, businesses, and sophisticated clients.
• Manage files independently with strong partner mentorship and guidance.

About You

• 2+ years of Insurance Defense experience.
• Experience in general liability, civil litigation, bodily injury, transportation, construction defect, or related defense litigation preferred.
• Looking for a long-term opportunity with growth potential and mentorship.
