Insurance defense

Only if you want more misery

funny

Look at the things you do on a daily basis: you interact with clients, opposing counsel, and claims adjusters, you sign clients up and bring in business, you evaluate claims and determine the issues present, you negotiate with insurance companies, you take depositions, you draft litigation documents and respond to discovery and defense counsel motions, you go to hearings, and you may even go trial. You have lots of transferable skills and just have to play up those kinds of things on your resume and in your interview.

I currently work at a small PI firm in Atlanta were EVERYTHING is settled presuit. If we’re unable to settle, then it’s referred to another firm for litigation. This whole process seems very atypical to me and the attorneys rarely touch a file until the first liability offer is received. The paralegals handle everything from intake to drafting the demands. The attorney briefly skims (does NOT read) the demand packages and signs. Is this ethical?? Anyone else work at a firm that is run this way??
