Job Description

ASSOCIATE ATTORNEY                                                                                                                 
LOCATION - AUSTIN, TX (ONSITE)
Our client is seeking a dedicated Associate Attorney to join their dynamic mid-sized civil litigation defense team in Austin, Texas. Known for their relaxed yet professional atmosphere, this firm prides itself on a supportive, mentorship-driven culture bolstered by an open-door policy. They highly value professionals who are passionate about their work and demonstrate a willingness to both learn from and mentor their colleagues.

The ideal candidate will bring at least one year of civil defense litigation experience, specifically in general liability, premises liability, auto accidents, worksite accidents, product liability, or construction defect cases. It is imperative that applicants possess insurance defense experience; candidates without it will not be considered. Essential skills include strong research and writing capabilities, along with trial experience. Experience in appellate work is an added advantage. While bringing your own clients is welcomed, it is not mandatory as the firm offers a substantial workload.

Responsibilities:
  • Handle all aspects of assigned cases, including discovery, motion practice, and trials.
  • Collaborate with team members in a supportive and open-door environment.
  • Mentor and share knowledge with colleagues, fostering a culture of continuous learning.
Qualifications:
  • Minimum of one year of civil defense litigation experience.
  • Specific experience in general liability, premises liability, auto accidents, worksite accidents, product liability, or construction defect cases.
  • Insurance defense experience is mandatory.
  • Strong research and writing skills.
  • Trial experience is essential; appellate work experience is a plus.
  • Ability to bring own clients is a bonus but not required, as ample work is available.

Collaboration and teamwork are vital components of success within this firm's collegial environment. Join a team where your contributions are valued and your professional growth is supported.
