Personal Injury Insurance Defense Attorney

Profile

Hickey Smith Dodd has a great opportunity for a Northern California Personal Injury Insurance Defense Attorney with trial experience.

We are a technology-enabled law firm with a nationwide (and low-carbon) footprint. Our insurance defense practice group has seen significant growth over the past few years and our growth is continuing. We are currently seeking a trial attorney with a Juris Doctorate Degree from an accredited law school and a license to practice law in California. A minimum of 8 years of legal practice with demonstrable litigation experience within insurance defense is required, specifically, subject matter expertise defending against general liability, products liability and commercial automobile claims. Some trial experience is required. Prior experience managing/supervising law firm staff is a plus.

Our firm has employed a remote (work-from-home) model for our attorneys for years. Hickey Smith Dodd attorneys are supported by a full staff of paralegals, legal case assistants, docket and calendar clerks, file clerks, etc., some working remotely, some working in a traditional office environment.

Our software applications (matter management system, document management system, etc.) are maintained in a cloud-based environment which firm personnel can access from virtually anywhere an internet connection is available. We are heavily invested in the use of technology to improve the efficacy and efficiency of the practice of law, so that our practice is largely paperless. Therefore, candidates should be comfortable using technology in the practice of law and a willingness to learn new technologies.

HSD offers very competitive salaries, commensurate with experience, a full suite of firm subsidized or paid insurance benefits (medical, dental, vision, disability, life) and additional compensation (PTO, paid holidays and 401K plan). HSD's corporate culture encourages promotion from within and the opportunity for growth/advancement in our firm.

If you are interested in joining a growing, forward-looking firm, please send us your resume.
