Toxic Tort Litigation Attorney – Partnership Track or Reduced-Hour StaffLocation: Baton Rouge, LA (Downtown)
Experience: 7+ years
Our client, a well-established defense litigation firm, is seeking a Toxic Tort Litigation Attorney to join its Baton Rouge office on either a partnership track or a reduced-hour staff attorney basis. This opportunity is ideal for an experienced defense litigator who thrives in complex, high-stakes exposure litigation and wants flexibility in career path.
What You'll Work On:
- Defending corporate clients in asbestos, toxic tort, products liability, and industrial operations litigation
- Managing complex, multi-party and multi-district litigation
- Coordinating discovery, developing expert witnesses, and handling large volumes of technical and operational evidence
- Independently managing depositions, hearings, and motion practice
- Developing and executing sophisticated litigation strategies across all phases of exposure-related cases
- Working directly with corporate clients, insurers, and national coordinating counsel
What We're Looking For:
- Minimum of 7 years of defense-side experience in asbestos, toxic tort, products liability, or industrial operations litigation
- Strong background representing corporate defendants in occupational-exposure matters (asbestos, chemical exposure, product-liability claims)
- Proven ability to independently manage complex litigation from start to finish
- Transcript(s) and writing sample required with resume submission
Why This Role Stands Out:
- Choice of career path: partnership track or reduced-hour staff attorney position
- Multiple bonus opportunities: billings bonus based on collections, production bonus, and origination bonus
- Sophisticated, national-scope defense work with corporate clients and coordinating counsel
Benefits:
Competitive compensation (set based on graduation year and experience) plus billings, production, and origination bonus programs.
If you're a seasoned toxic tort defender ready for your next chapter with the flexibility to shape it on your terms we'd love to hear from you.
