  • Handle depositions, hearings, dispositive motions, mediations, and trials

  • Maintain direct interaction with clients, carriers, and decision-makers

  • Mentor and collaborate with junior attorneys and litigation teams

Desired Background:

  • 8+ years of commercial litigation experience

  • Significant insurance bad faith litigation experience

  • Proven first-chair trial experience required

  • Strong deposition, motion practice, and courtroom advocacy skills

  • Ability to independently manage complex, high-value litigation

  • Active Washington State Bar admission required

Why Attorneys Are Interested in This Opportunity:

  • Consistent pipeline of sophisticated, high-exposure litigation

  • Genuine trial opportunities and meaningful courtroom involvement

  • Lean litigation team with strong attorney autonomy
