At JSH, associates don't just support partners - they try cases and arbitrate disputes with them.

We're one of the largest and most experienced trial and appellate firms in the Southwest and trusted by major carriers across the region. Our practices are growing, and we're looking for a driven attorney with civil litigation or insurance defense experience to join a team known for developing exceptional trial lawyers.
What we're looking for:
Utah Bar member in good standing
0-6+ years in civil litigation and/or insurance defense
Experience with depositions, discovery, motions practice, and court appearances a plus
Insurance defense background (auto, bad faith, construction, GL, med mal, PI, premises, product, professional, transportation, etc.) strongly preferred
Someone who wants to win for clients and has the drive to prove it
The bottom line: Good pay, full benefits, and a firm that will invest in making you a trial attorney.
