About the Role

Join a boutique legal practice advising institutional policyholders on complex insurance coverage matters. You will manage your own caseload, build client relationships, and handle disputes from initial coverage analysis through litigation and resolution.

What You'll Do

• Analyze commercial insurance policies, including general liability, D&O, E&O, cyber, and property coverage.

• Advise corporate and technology clients on coverage positions, tender decisions, coverage strategy, and policy procurement considerations.

• Manage client relationships and matters independently, with minimal supervision.

• Litigate coverage disputes in California state and federal courts, including handling depositions, motions, and court filings.

• Draft coverage opinions, reservation of rights responses, and demand letters.

What We're Looking For

• Juris Doctor degree and active California bar admission.

• One to four years of civil litigation experience, including depositions, motions, and court filings.

• Strong legal writing, analytical, and insurance coverage analysis skills.

• Experience advising institutional or corporate clients; technology-sector experience is a plus.

• Insurance coverage experience is preferred, particularly policyholder-side experience. Defense-side coverage experience is also considered.

• Ability to independently manage matters and client relationships, with experience handling coverage issues across commercial policy lines.

• Familiarity with Westlaw, LexisNexis, and Microsoft Office.
