Litigation Associate (Insurance Defense) Orlando, Florida $90,000-$120,000 Most associates don’t leave because of the work.
They leave because no one ever really showed them how to do it properly.
You get given files.
You figure it out.
Maybe someone checks in.
Maybe they don’t.
You improve… but slowly.
Usually by fixing your own mistakes.
This is a bit different.
You’ll still have responsibility.
You’ll still run files.
But you won’t be left guessing whether you’re doing it right.
There’s actual guidance here.
Not constant hand holding.
Just the kind of input that makes you better, faster.
