Insurance Defense & Class Actions Associate (5+ Years)
Litigation Associate – Toronto
A premier Ontario-based law firm is currently looking for a Litigation Associate to join their highly-regarded insurance defense and class actions practice in North York. This firm is recognized for its sophisticated approach to advocacy and a culture that prioritizes professional development and cross-team collaboration.
The Opportunity
This role is designed for an ambitious lawyer looking to transition into a more substantial platform. You will handle a diverse and challenging portfolio—including complex Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) and tort claims, as well as defending major institutional and corporate clients in complex class action proceedings—while gaining direct, hands-on experience in the courtroom and before administrative tribunals.
Trial & Hearing Exposure:
Frequent opportunities to lead and assist on high-stakes litigation and class-proceeding matters.
Balanced Structure:
A competitive and achievable billing target that respects your time.
Professional Pedigree:
Work alongside some of the city's most respected litigators and class action defense counsel in a mentorship-heavy environment.
Candidate Requirements
Experience:
5 years of post-call experience in insurance defense and/or commercial litigation, with exposure to multi-party or class action proceedings.
Competence:
A proven ability to manage files independently, from initial assessment through to certification motions, mediations, or trial.
Strategic Thinking:
A proactive approach to file resolution, risk assessment, and a keen eye for detail in large-scale document management.
Communication:
Exceptional drafting skills and the confidence to provide high-level counsel to sophisticated insurer and corporate clients.
Why This Firm?
Opportunities at this level within such a prestigious downtown group are infrequent. If you are looking to move away from a siloed role and into a position that offers true career trajectory, courtroom time, and exposure to cutting-edge class action defense work, this is the ideal transition.
