Income Partner – Commercial Litigation
My client, a national litigation platform, is seeking a senior litigator to join its Seattle office in a true working-partner model—designed for attorneys who want to stay close to the work, lead their own cases, and maintain direct client relationships.
This is not a layered, top-down law firm. Partners are trusted to run their matters, make decisions, and drive outcomes.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Working-partner structure—hands-on litigation, not just oversight
- Direct client access with minimal internal layers
- Established institutional work, including insurance coverage and bad faith matters
- Platform that supports individual practice growth without restricting it
What You’ll Be Doing
- Lead commercial litigation matters from intake through resolution
- Serve as first chair on depositions, hearings, and trials
- Advise clients directly on case strategy and risk
- Manage all phases of litigation, including pleadings, discovery, and motion practice
- Handle matters in both state and federal court
What They’re Looking For
- 10+ years of commercial litigation experience
- Licensed in Washington (additional jurisdictions a plus)
- Proven ability to independently manage cases end-to-end
- Strong deposition, oral argument, and trial experience
- Background in insurance coverage and/or bad faith litigation is a plus
- Experience in a sophisticated firm environment (national, regional, or strong boutique)
Compensation
- $270,000 – $300,000 base, with top industry production bonuses
This role is best suited for a litigator who values autonomy, ownership, and the ability to stay actively engaged in the practice of law within a strong national platform.
