The posting

An established Michigan litigation firm focused on insurance defense is seeking an Insurance Defense Associate Attorney to join its team in Farmington Hills, MI. You’ll manage your own caseload of no-fault and insurance defense matters from start to finish. Base salary is $140,000-$170,000, and quarterly production bonuses put total compensation around $200,000 for strong performers.

This is a lifestyle firm that expects great work and respects your time outside of it. After an initial in-office period, you’ll set your own hybrid schedule. Time off is flexible, and attorneys who build their own adjuster relationships have a real path to partnership.

What You’ll Do as the Insurance Defense Associate Attorney:

  • Manage your own caseload of insurance defense matters from intake through resolution, building to roughly 50-60 files once you’re up to speed
  • Defend Michigan no-fault claims and other insurance defense matters, including a growing volume of SIU (Special Investigations Unit) cases
  • Take and defend depositions and manage written discovery
  • Draft and argue motions, including dispositive motions
  • Evaluate cases and report strategy, exposure, and recommendations to insurance carrier clients and adjusters
  • Negotiate settlements and represent clients in case evaluation, facilitation, and mediation
  • Prepare cases for trial and try cases when needed
  • Build relationships with adjusters and carrier clients that grow your own referral base
  • Collaborate closely with the firm’s partners and attorneys

Must-Haves as the Insurance Defense Associate Attorney:

  • Active Michigan bar license in good standing
  • About 3-7 years of litigation experience
  • Michigan no-fault experience, from either the defense or plaintiff side
  • Proven ability to independently manage your own caseload from start to finish
  • Strong deposition, discovery, and motion practice skills
  • Courtroom readiness and the confidence to try a case when needed
  • A genuine enjoyment of litigation
  • Ability to meet a 1,850-hour annual billable requirement
  • Ability to work from the Farmington Hills office for an initial period before moving to a hybrid schedule

Nice-to-Haves as the Insurance Defense Associate Attorney:

  • SIU or insurance fraud defense experience
  • Insurance defense experience at a private law firm
  • Trial experience
  • Existing relationships with insurance adjusters or carrier clients
  • Experience across Michigan circuit and district courts

This Role Offers:

  • Base salary of $140,000-$170,000, depending on experience
  • Quarterly bonuses paid for every billable hour above 1,850, with significant earning upside for high performers
  • Health insurance premiums 100% paid by the firm, plus an HSA
  • 401(k) with a 3% company match after one year
  • Flexible time off, typically about four weeks, with real flexibility when your caseload is handled
  • Hybrid flexibility after an initial in-office onboarding period
  • A real path to partnership for attorneys who build their own relationships and referrals
  • Relocation assistance available to negotiate for candidates elsewhere in Michigan
  • A growing 14-attorney firm that values life outside of work

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
