Litigation Partner – Insurance Defense

Remote | New York Practice | Leadership Opportunity

Take the lead. Shape strategy. Grow your practice.

This is a rare opportunity for an accomplished Insurance Defense Litigation Partner to step into a high-impact leadership role within a growing New York practice—without the grind of daily case handling. If you thrive on strategy, mentorship, and client relationships, this role was built for you.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • True Partner-Level Role – Focus on oversight, strategy, and client leadership rather than day-to-day litigation tasks
  • Remote Flexibility – Work remotely while remaining connected to New York courts
  • Influence & Visibility – Play a key role in shaping the direction and growth of the New York practice
  • Collaborative Culture – Join a diverse, forward-thinking team that values leadership, accountability, and results

The Role

As a Litigation Partner, you’ll serve as a trusted advisor to clients and insurers while guiding attorneys across complex insurance defense matters. You’ll set litigation strategy, ensure quality control, and mentor attorneys—stepping in when needed to drive results.

You will:

  • Lead litigation strategy on high-exposure insurance defense matters
  • Act as a primary client and carrier contact
  • Review pleadings, motion practice, and case strategy
  • Mentor and develop attorneys at multiple levels
  • Maintain high standards across all matters

Practice Focus

  • New York Labor Law
  • Premises liability
  • Construction and workplace accidents
  • Motor vehicle and professional liability matters

What We’re Looking For

  • J.D. from an accredited law school
  • Active New Jersey bar admission
  • 8+ years of insurance defense litigation experience
  • Proven leadership, mentorship, or practice oversight experience
  • Strong client-facing and strategic decision-making skills

Compensation

  • Highly competitive compensation package
  • Salary commensurate with experience
  • Semi-monthly pay structure

Ready to Lead, Not Just Litigate?

If you’re an experienced insurance defense attorney ready to elevate your role, expand your influence, and lead a New York practice—this is your next move.
