Full Job Description
This is a hands-on role for an experienced litigator. Senior associates in this group are expected to manage matters from inception through resolution under the general direction of partners, with a high degree of autonomy and professional judgment. Responsibilities include evaluating liability and damages, preparing detailed client reports, taking and defending depositions, drafting and arguing substantive and dispositive motions, and managing all aspects of litigation on high-exposure cases.

The practice includes premises and retail liability, negligent security, products liability, rideshare liability, construction defect and injury, public entity and civil rights, and commercial auto and trucking litigation. Many matters involve catastrophic losses, multiple claimants, and fatalities, requiring strong analytical skills, organization, and the ability to manage complex litigation efficiently and effectively.

While senior associates work independently on their assigned matters, they also collaborate closely with partners and may assist in mentoring junior attorneys within the group. Our department has produced litigators who now lead teams, manage books of business, and handle serious matters throughout Florida.

Marshall Dennehey offers a competitive salary, multiple bonus opportunities throughout the year, a comprehensive benefits package, and a firm-funded Lifestyle Account through the Marshall Associate Advantage program for associates. The firm is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace.

Interested candidates are invited to submit a cover letter and resume for consideration.
