Blossom HR is recruiting an Insurance Coverage Attorney for a well-established San Francisco boutique that represents policyholders in insurance coverage and bad faith disputes throughout California. This is an on-site role, in the office five days per week, with flexibility for personal appointments.

You will have real independence from day one, owning your own matters and client relationships and advising sophisticated corporate and Bay Area technology clients on cyber, D&O, E&O and other commercial coverage issues. Insurance coverage experience is a plus but not required: strong general civil litigators are welcome. The firm offers a partnership track at six to eight years with no book-of-business requirement, and a sustainable workload of about 100 billable hours per month.

What you will do

Analyze and interpret commercial insurance policies, including GL, D&O, E&O, cyber and property
Develop coverage strategy, tender decisions and policy procurement advice for clients
Manage matters from intake to resolution, including coverage opinions, reservation-of-rights responses and demand letters
Litigate coverage disputes in California state and federal courts, including depositions, motions and court filings
Build and manage direct relationships with sophisticated corporate clients

$160,000 to $200,000 base, plus a discretionary bonus

Schedule and location

Full-time, on-site in San Francisco, CA, five days per week.
