Litigation Associate Attorney

Litigation Attorney – General Liability & Professional Liability Defense

Prestigious boutique law firm in Dunwoody, GA.

Location: Georgia
Experience: 2–6 years
Status: Full-Time | Partnership Track

Why This Role Stands Out

If you're a litigator who wants real responsibility, courtroom experience, and a long-term career path, this is not a back-office defense role. You will handle high-stakes matters from inception through trial and appeal, work directly with experienced partners, and develop the skills needed to eventually build your own book of business.

Our client invests in their attorneys. Their goal is partnership—not burnout or turnover.

What You'll Do

• Defend high-value general liability matters, including:
  • Motor vehicle accidents
  • Premises liability
  • Other tort claims involving bodily injury
• Handle professional liability defense, including:
  • Legal malpractice
  • Broker and agent malpractice
  • Miscellaneous professional liability claims
  • Represent insured individuals, corporations, and self-insured entities
• Manage cases from intake through resolution, including:
  • Drafting pleadings and dispositive motions
  • Taking and defending depositions
  • Appearing in court and arguing motions
  • Participating in trials and appeals

What Were Looking For

• 2–6 years of litigation experience
• Bodily injury or civil litigation experience preferred (not required)
• Criminal law litigators transitioning to civil litigation are welcome
• Active Georgia Bar license (required)
• Strong writing, analytical, and advocacy skills
• Desire for long-term growth and partnership

What You'll Gain

• Hands-on litigation experience—not document review
• Quarterly bonus 
• Exposure to a broad, sophisticated caseload
• A clear path to partnership
• A firm culture that values sustainability, not burnout
