About this role
Overview
Litigation Associate – Insurance & Casualty Defense (Dallas)
Dallas, TX | On-Site or Hybrid
Our growing Dallas–Fort Worth practice is looking for a Litigation Associate to take on a hands-on role in our insurance and casualty defense work. Based in our Dallas office with the flexibility of a hybrid schedule, you'll defend a varied mix of civil matters while building the trial skills that define a lasting litigation career. This is an on-site or hybrid position designed for an attorney who values in-person collaboration and close mentorship.
Responsibilities:
You'll own a caseload of insurance and casualty defense matters from first pleading through disposition—investigating claims, drafting motions and briefs, managing written and oral discovery, and second-chairing (then, over time, first-chairing) hearings, mediations, and trials. Working side-by-side with partners in the office, you'll get direct feedback, real client relationships, and steadily increasing responsibility as your skills grow. The active DFW docket keeps the work varied, so no two weeks look quite the same.
We're serious about developing our attorneys. Alongside a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, you'll find a culture that pairs the resources of an established practice with the day-to-day mentorship of a tight-knit team—and genuinely recognizes the effort you bring.
Qualifications & Experience:
- 3+ years of civil litigation experience, preferably in insurance defense, casualty, or general liability.
- Juris Doctor (J.D.) from an accredited law school.
- Licensed to practice law in Texas and in good standing.
- Based in, or able to commute to, the Dallas–Fort Worth area for on-site and hybrid work.
Why Join Us?
- Competitive Compensation & Bonus Structure: A strong salary and a bonus program that rewards the results you drive.
- Comprehensive Benefits: Company-paid PPO medical, plus dental and vision coverage.
- Generous PTO & Well-Being Support: Paid time off, a floating holiday, and a mental health day.
- 401(k) Plan: With a meaningful employer match toward your future.
- Inclusive Culture: A collaborative, equal-opportunity team that values every perspective.
- Professional Development: Trial-skills training, CLE support, and a clear runway for advancement.
Confidentiality & Equal Opportunity:
Your inquiry stays completely confidential—we understand discretion matters when you're exploring a move. We are an equal-opportunity employer committed to an inclusive workplace for all employees, regardless of race, gender, or background.
