Insurance Defense Lawyer
Cartel Inc.
Insurance Defense Associate (2–4 Years)
Litigation Associate – Downtown Toronto
A premier Ontario-based law firm is currently looking for a Litigation Associate to join their highly-regarded insurance defense practice in the heart of Toronto. This firm is recognized for its sophisticated approach to advocacy and a culture that prioritizes professional development and cross-team collaboration.
The Opportunity
This role is designed for an ambitious lawyer looking to transition into a more substantial platform. You will handle a diverse and challenging portfolio—including complex Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) and tort claims—while gaining direct, hands-on experience in the courtroom.
Key Benefits:
- Trial Exposure: Frequent opportunities to lead and assist on high-stakes litigation matters.
- Balanced Structure: A competitive and achievable billing target that respects your time.
- Hybrid Flexibility: A progressive remote-work policy that supports a modern work-life balance.
- Professional Pedigree: Work alongside some of the city's most respected litigators in a mentorship-heavy environment.
Candidate Requirements
- Experience: 2–4 years of post-call experience in insurance defense (law firm or in-house).
- Competence: A proven ability to manage files independently, from initial assessment through to mediation or trial.
- Strategic Thinking: A proactive approach to file resolution and a keen eye for detail.
- Communication: Exceptional drafting skills and the confidence to provide high-level counsel to sophisticated insurer clients.
Why This Firm?
Opportunities at this level within such a prestigious downtown group are infrequent. If you are looking to move away from a "paper-heavy" role and into a position that offers true career trajectory and courtroom time, this is the ideal transition.
