Overview
Insurance Defense Attorney Jobs in Irvine, CA at Distinct Recruitment
There’s a point in your litigation career where getting more experience shouldn’t simply mean getting more work.
You want better cases. More responsibility. Partners who trust you. And ideally a firm big enough to offer proper resources without making you feel like employee number 4,732.
That’s roughly what we have here.
I’m working with a large national litigation firm looking to add an Insurance Defense Attorney to its California team.
Salary: $120,000 to $165,000, depending on experience
Why this firm:
- Serious national platform with a very established California presence
- Strong trial culture, so there is genuine opportunity to get into court
- Broad mix of sophisticated insurance defense work rather than the same case 40 times
- Deep bench of experienced litigators to learn from
- Plenty of room to build a long term career rather than simply collect more billable hours
What you’ll be doing:
- Handle general liability and insurance defense matters from inception through resolution
- Take and defend depositions, draft motions and work with experts
- Attend court hearings, mediations and settlement conferences
- Get meaningful involvement in trial preparation and strategy
What you’ll have:
- 2 to 6 years of civil litigation experience, ideally within insurance defense
- Experience managing your own caseload and taking depositions
- Strong writing skills and the confidence to actually run with matters
- Admitted to The California Bar
Next Steps:
Here’s the bit worth remembering: you don’t need to be actively looking to have a conversation.
Maybe there’s something better out there for you. Maybe there isn’t. Worst case, we have a confidential chat and you decide staying put is the right move. That’s a perfectly good outcome too.
If you’d rather talk than apply, call me on 646 540 9647. I know court appearances, depositions and the small matter of actually billing your hours don’t always leave much room in your day. So I’m around early mornings (from 6am PST time) and at weekends too.
And if speaking to a recruiter isn’t normally high on your list of enjoyable activities, I understand. There are over 100 recommendations on my LinkedIn profile if you want to vet me first. I’m Arran Jaiswal At Distinct North America.
