Job Description - Insurance Defense Attorney

Pay: $125,000.00 - $150,000.00 per year

Why This Is a Great Opportunity

  • Work directly with an experienced Arizona litigator on high-exposure commercial vehicle defense cases
  • Primarily remote role with flexibility to use the Phoenix office as needed
  • Handle substantive litigation: depositions, motion practice, and trials — not just paper pushing
  • Join a small, nimble firm where your results are visible and your input is valued
  • Solid compensation DOE with room to grow based on performance and experience

Location

  • Primarily remote role based in Arizona
  • Phoenix office available for in-person work, meetings, and collaboration as desired

Note

  • Must hold an active Arizona Bar license
  • Looking for 3+ years of insurance defense experience, with a strong preference for 5+ years
  • Must have direct experience handling depositions and at least some trial work in civil defense

About Our Client

  • Our client is a boutique Arizona law firm that handles civil defense matters with a focus on insurance defense
  • The firm is led by seasoned trial counsel with decades of experience in Arizona courts
  • Matters typically involve defending insureds and businesses in commercial vehicle and trucking-related claims, not simple “blue car, red car” personal auto cases
  • Clients value the firm’s conscientious, experienced, and dedicated approach to litigation and risk management

Job Description

  • Defend insureds, motor carriers, and businesses in commercial vehicle and trucking accident litigation
  • Manage a litigation caseload from assignment through resolution, including discovery, motion practice, mediation, and trial preparation
  • Take and defend depositions of parties, fact witnesses, and experts
  • Draft pleadings, discovery responses, dispositive motions, trial briefs, and evaluation reports for insurers and corporate clients
  • Appear in Arizona state and, where applicable, federal courts for hearings, conferences, and trials
  • Evaluate case exposure and provide clear, timely reporting and recommendations to clients and carriers
  • Work collaboratively with firm leadership on case strategy, trial themes, and settlement posture
  • Maintain regular, professional communication with clients, co-counsel, opposing counsel, and the court

Qualifications

  • Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school
  • Active Arizona Bar license in good standing
  • 3+ years of insurance defense experience required; 5+ years preferred
  • Strong background in automobile/commercial vehicle defense or general bodily injury defense litigation
  • Proven experience taking and defending depositions; trial experience or first/second chair trial involvement strongly preferred
  • Solid legal writing skills and comfort with motion practice and complex discovery
  • Ability to work independently in a primarily remote environment while staying responsive and organized
  • Professional, solutions-focused communication style with insurers and corporate clients

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • Primarily remote structure with flexibility and trust in your ability to manage your caseload
  • Challenging, higher-exposure commercial vehicle defense work instead of routine low-value cases
  • Close collaboration with experienced trial counsel and the opportunity to sharpen your courtroom skills
  • Streamlined, small-firm environment without big-firm bureaucracy
  • Compensation commensurate with experience, with clear upside for strong litigators

Benefits:

  • Dental insurance
  • Life insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Retirement plan
  • Vision insurance
