Associate Attorney | Medical Malpractice and General Liability | Tampa, Florida

$130,000 to $160,000


There comes a point in litigation where you want more than “keep the file moving.”


You want to be trusted with the thinking. The strategy. The awkward client call. The moment where someone senior asks what you would do, and actually waits for the answer.


This role is for an Associate Attorney in Tampa, working across medical malpractice and general liability matters.


It is probably best suited to someone with around 3 to 5 years of insurance defense experience who wants proper litigation work, more client contact, and a bit more room to grow without having to pretend they already know everything.


Nobody does. Some are just louder about it.


You’ll be involved in case strategy, discovery, motion practice, analysis, client communication and the general rhythm of civil defense litigation. The good bits, the frustrating bits, the bits where you read the same paragraph three times because opposing counsel has somehow made a sentence worse by editing it.


What they are looking for

Florida Bar admission in good standing

Around 3 to 5 years of insurance defense experience

Medical malpractice, general liability, or broader civil defense experience


What’s on offer

Salary from $130,000 to $160,000 depending on experience

Benefits package

Tampa based role

Medical malpractice and general liability work

Strong litigation exposure

More client contact and involvement in case strategy


A role that should give you more room than just being another name on a file
