Auto Insurance Litigation Attorney - New York (981-SLS)
About The Position
Our client, Latin America's first AI unicorn, backed by Founders Fund and Sequoia, has exclusively retained Solutus Legal Search to assist in its search for an Auto Insurance Litigation Attorney. The company builds software that helps businesses manage high volumes of individual litigation by gathering evidence, detecting fraud, supporting litigation strategy, and helping generate responses. As the company expands its work with leading U.S. auto insurers, it is looking to add an experienced insurance litigator to its growing U.S. legal team. This attorney will bring practical, hands-on auto insurance litigation expertise into the company's work with clients and product teams. The role is particularly well suited for a litigator who understands how auto insurance cases are handled day to day and is interested in applying that knowledge in a technology-driven environment. This is an opportunity for an experienced insurance litigator to move beyond handling individual cases and use their expertise to help shape technology designed to transform the way high-volume litigation is managed. The company offers the opportunity to work closely with a highly entrepreneurial team at the intersection of litigation, insurance, and AI.
