A sophisticated boutique litigation firm is seeking a mid-level Associate Attorney with 3-6 years of experience to join its Yardley, Pennsylvania office.

This is a strong opportunity for an attorney who wants to handle high-exposure insurance matters, complex litigation and appellate work for national and international clients without the daily commute into Philadelphia or New York.

About the Firm

The firm focuses heavily on insurance coverage and defense litigation and represents insurers and their insureds in complex matters across the United States and internationally.

The Yardley office handles a mix of:

• Appellate work

Attorneys regularly work with insurance carriers, corporate legal departments, international clients and high-net-worth individuals.

The Opportunity

The team is specifically seeking an attorney with 3-6 years of litigation experience who wants to continue developing within a collaborative, mentorship-driven environment.

This is not a volume-based insurance-defense role. The position offers meaningful responsibility, sophisticated work, direct client interaction and the opportunity to develop into a long-term member of the team.

Associates have exposure across coverage, direct defense and litigation monitoring, providing broader experience than many traditional insurance-defense positions.

• High-exposure matters with national and international scope
• Direct interaction with insurers and corporate legal departments
• Exposure to coverage, direct defense, litigation monitoring and appellate work
• Strong mentorship and long-term development
• Clear path for increased responsibility and advancement
• Business generation is not required for advancement
• Competitive compensation with quarterly and annual bonus opportunities
