Insurance Coverage Associate

Description:

Insurance Coverage Associate | Raleigh, NC 

The policy runs forty pages. The whole dispute turns on one exclusion. If that sentence gave you a small jolt of pleasure, keep reading.

I'm Clark Pollins at Distinct Recruitment. I'm working with an Am Law firm to hire a coverage attorney into its Raleigh insurance group. Here's why it's worth a conversation.

The work

• Complex coverage matters, from counseling carriers on policy language and claims handling through to coverage litigation.
• Bad faith disputes come into the mix too.
• Coverage is the job. It isn't a stepping stone to general litigation.

Why now

• The Raleigh office has grown fast in recent years and roughly doubled its headcount between 2021 and 2024.
• A growing office means room. Room to take on more, get known by clients, and shape where the group goes next.

Why the salary band is wide

• The firm is hiring across two levels.
• Toward the earlier end of the 2 to 5 year window, expect the lower half of the range.
• If you're a senior associate who can already run a coverage matter with light supervision, you're looking at the upper end.

You'll probably like this if

• You have 2 to 5 years of insurance coverage experience.
• You read endorsements properly, not just the declarations page.
• You'd rather be a coverage lawyer at a firm that takes coverage seriously than a litigator who does some coverage on the side.
