Litigation Associate, Auto and Trucking Defense | Orlando, FL | $125,000 to $200,000 | Auto (Trucking and Transportation) Learning trucking defense over video calls is slow. You can read a hundred crash reports, but you learn how to handle a catastrophic loss by sitting ten feet from someone who has done it many times and watching how they handle the first phone call. That's the case for this role, and it's why the role is based in the office in Orlando. I'm Ryan Jaiswal at Distinct Recruitment, hiring for an insurance defense firm that needs an attorney for its trucking and commercial auto work, along with a steady flow of auto liability matters. What lands on your desk Trucking and commercial auto claims, from the first hours after a loss through trial Electronic logging device data, dispatch records, hours of service questions, maintenance logs and driver qualification files Accident reconstruction and biomechanical experts, and the depositions that come with them Standard auto negligence files alongside the larger trucking matters, so your docket has both pace and depth Plenty of exposure: depositions, hearings, mediations and trial work from day one, with direct adjuster and client contact Is it right for you? 2+ years of litigation experience in auto, trucking, bodily injury or general insurance defense Florida Bar license Trucking experience helps but isn't required. Solid auto defense experience and an appetite for the bigger files are enough Senior associates and counsel level attorneys will find room here to lead the high exposure cases, take trials first chair and mentor others Numbers Fully in office, Orlando 1,950 billable hours $125,000 to $200,000, a purposely broad range so experienced attorneys are paid what they're worth Why the office matters here Trucking cases move fast and the stakes are high. When a serious loss comes in late on a Friday, the attorneys who learn quickest are the ones who can walk down the hall, talk it through and get moving. That kind of proximity is what turns a capable auto lawyer into the person carriers ask for by name, and it's how trial lawyers and future partners get made. Questions first?
