Job description
General Liability Associate | Basking Ridge, NJ | Remote | $190K
Seeking a mid-level General Liability Associate with 2–9 years of post-bar experience and an active New Jersey bar. This is not a clerkship or first-year seat.
Our client is a national insurance-defense firm with a New Jersey hub in Basking Ridge. The docket is New Jersey general liability and premises work, staffed locally and backed by a multi-state platform. The office is known as low-pressure and well mentored. Trial is part of the practice, not a brochure line.
Why You Should Join:
$190K for New Jersey General Liability – Strong suburban-NJ pay without a Newark or Manhattan five-day mandate
A Real New Jersey Hub, Not a Letterhead Office – Files are staffed in Basking Ridge; you are not a satellite feeding another city’s partners
Trial Work in New Jersey Courts – Hearings, depositions, and trial prep are expected of mid-levels, not locked to two senior partners
Mentors Instead of Volume Pressure – Collegial office, no yellers, people who will actually review your brief
National Backup When a File Explodes – Multi-office defense platform behind local NJ cases, so you are not understaffed the week a case gets serious
Key Duties:
Defend general liability and premises matters in New Jersey state and federal court
Manage discovery, depositions, and motion practice
Handle hearings, mediations, and trial prep
Advise carriers on exposure and strategy
Take ownership of New Jersey files through resolution
Requirements:
JD and active New Jersey bar
2–9 years of post-bar general liability or insurance defense experience
Current or recent title of Associate or equivalent — law clerks and summer associates will not be considered
Deposition and court-appearance experience
No one fits every box perfectly - if you’re a practicing General Liability Associate seeking $190K in Basking Ridge, let’s talk confidentially.
