Descripción del empleo

Try cases. Arbitrate disputes. Build a career. Join one of Arizona’s leading insurance defense firms.

At JSH, associates don’t just support partners - they try cases and arbitrate disputes with them. If you want a litigation career where you’ll be asking questions in depositions (not taking notes and passing exhibits), arguing motions, and standing before a jury or arbitrator in your first few years, this is that opportunity.

We’re Arizona’s second-largest law firm and trusted by major carriers across the Southwest. Our Auto, General Liability, and Municipal / Employment practices are growing, and we’re looking for a driven attorney with civil litigation or insurance defense experience to join a team known for developing exceptional trial lawyers.

What sets JSH apart

• Real courtroom and arbitration experience, not just document review
• Mentorship program + structured new lawyer training + in-house CLE
• Clear, transparent six-year path to partnership
• Transparent bonus structure on top of a competitive base salary
• A culture where you can spend your entire career and become a small business owner, with the freedom that comes with having your own book of business

What we’re looking for

• 0-6+ years in civil litigation and/or insurance defense
• Experience with depositions, discovery, motions practice, and court appearances a plus
• Insurance defense background (auto, bad faith, construction, GL, med mal, PI, premises, product, professional, transportation, etc.) strongly preferred
• Someone who wants to win for clients and has the drive to prove it

The bottom line:

Good pay, full benefits, and a firm that will invest in making you a trial attorney.

Jones, Skelton & Hochuli is an equal opportunity employer.
