DWTSurge Recruiting Manager at Davis Wright Tremaine LLP
Davis Wright Tremaine LLP is seeking an insurance coverage attorney for engagement through the firm’s contract attorney and alternative staffing program, DWTSurge. This contract attorney position will work with the insurance coverage group in litigation and pre-litigation matters. Attorneys based in Washington and/or Oregon are preferred and the selected individual can anticipate working West Coast hours.
Attorneys with experience representing insurers in coverage litigation involving a variety of policies and who are seeking more flexibility in their practice, are encouraged to apply.
This contract position will be full-time and on-going. While the engagement is for an initial 6-month contract term, we anticipate the work to remain relatively steady and there is a high likelihood to renew the contract position for successful candidates. We are looking for attorneys interested in establishing a long-term working relationship with the Firm.
The selected resource will be responsible for reviewing policies, writing coverage opinion, preparing pleadings, drafting motions, and reviewing documents.
The ideal candidate will have:
- 5+ years of insurance coverage counselling and/or litigation experience in a law firm or in-house setting.
- Residency and active bar admission in Washington and/or Oregon is preferred.
- Demonstrated success performing legal research, reviewing and analyzing coverage issues based on state and federal law.
- Familiarity working on high-impact strategic complex litigation and providing legal coverage advice on claims involving commercial policies.
- Strong motions drafting skills and experience.
- Availability to work full-time hours on an on-going basis.
- Ability to work remotely, support west coast hours, and attend in-office meetings in the WA or CA offices when needed.
- Excellent writing skills, strong attention to detail, and ability to produce high quality work product with minimal supervision and direction.
Please note that this is a temporary contract position managed by DWT’s flexible attorney program, DWTSurge. Compensation will be paid on an hourly basis, commensurate with experience and skill level (see below). Due to the structure of the DWTSurge program, DWTSurge employees are not eligible for the firm’s pro bono, DEI, and other activities or opportunities outside of the above stated scope of work. We are interested in candidates electing to pursue a more flexible way of providing continuous, high-value legal services to the firm and our clients. If you are interested in a more traditional law firm position, please check the DWT careers page for lateral opportunities.
SALARY RANGE:
The hourly compensation rate for this role is $90 to $120 per hour. Actual pay will be adjusted based on the candidate’s education, training, experience and other job-related factors permitted by law. Full-time contract attorneys may be eligible for health insurance, vision care, 401(k), and paid sick leave.
Additional benefits include:
- First Stop Health Telemedicine: Speak with a licensed physician or mental health counselor 24/7, covered by the firm
