Our client, a prominent firm located in Toronto, is actively seeking a Litigation Associate Lawyer to join their esteemed team. Known for their inclusive and progressive culture, this firm consistently ranks as a top workplace in the legal industry. Why This Role Stands Out This is an exceptional opportunity for a lawyer seeking meaningful, impactful work in a supportive environment. In addition to managing high-quality insurance litigation files, including Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) claims, this role offers the unique chance to work on class action cases retained on behalf of a government client. The position features a flexible billing structure, hybrid work options, and access to valuable trial experience. You’ll manage a diverse caseload and collaborate with a team that values innovation and excellence in legal service delivery. Key Qualifications Experience : 2-8 years of post-qualification experience specializing in insurance litigation defense or class action work with a respected law firm. Expertise : Strong understanding of insurance litigation, conflict resolution strategies, and class action processes. Innovation : Interest in advancing legal service delivery and supporting the firm’s growth. Leadership : Initiative and readiness to take on leadership roles in projects. Flexibility : Hybrid work options available, promoting a healthy work-life balance. What Makes This Opportunity Unique Opportunities like this are rare in the legal sector, particularly with such a reputable firm. The chance to work on government-retained class action cases adds a level of significance and impact not often found in similar roles. Whether you want to refine your litigation expertise or explore leadership opportunities, this position offers a clear path to advance your career while enjoying the benefits of a hybrid work environment.
