Full Job Description
Overview

The Seattle, WA office of Lewis Brisbois, a full-service AmLaw 100 firm, is actively seeking an attorney to join its Insurance Coverage and General Liability Practice.

 

Lewis Brisbois is seeking a talented and motivated attorney with three (3) to seven (7) years of experience to join our General Liability Practice, with a focus on insurance coverage and liability defense. This is an excellent opportunity for an attorney who wants sophisticated work, meaningful responsibility, and the support of a nationally recognized litigation platform.

The ideal candidate will have experience analyzing insurance coverage issues and drafting thoughtful, well-reasoned coverage opinions involving first-party property and general liability policies. Experience across all phases of litigation is expected, including case management, motion practice, discovery, and depositions. Exposure to arbitrations and trial work is a plus but not required.

While prior insurance law experience is preferred, we are equally interested in attorneys who demonstrate exceptional core legal skills, particularly legal research, writing, and analytical ability. We are committed to developing strong lawyers and offer opportunities for mentorship, hands-on experience, and long-term professional growth.

Lewis Brisbois’ General Liability Practice includes more than 600 attorneys nationwide and is widely respected for handling high-exposure, complex matters, including catastrophic injury, wrongful death, and sophisticated commercial litigation. Our partners and senior associates are seasoned trial lawyers with extensive courtroom experience, and the firm has been recognized by the National Law Journal for securing one of the “Top Ten Defense Verdicts of the Year,” among other notable achievements.

We offer competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and a 401(k) with employer match.

Admission to the Washington State Bar is required.
