Associate Attorney – Complex Insurance Coverage & Litigation

Peters & Nye LLP | Northwest Suburbs (Chicago) In-Person Position (Hybrid - Two days a week remote)

 

About the Firm

Peters & Nye LLP is a premier boutique law firm located in the northwest suburbs of Chicago. We serve as specialized coverage counsel for leading domestic and international insurance companies. With unparalleled experience in high-stakes litigation and complex coverage matters—including D&O, E&O, Fiduciary, and Employment —we offer the sophisticated work of a national firm within a collaborative, boutique environment.

 

The Role

We are seeking a motivated, well-credentialed Associate Attorney with 2–6 years of legal experience to join our growing practice. This is an ideal role for an attorney who wants to move beyond "document review" and into a position with immediate responsibility and a clear path for professional development. This role includes both claims handling duties and litigation duties. This role includes a hybrid option to work remotely two days a week.

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide strategic counsel on complex insurance coverage issues and litigation.
  • Draft high-level legal research memos, coverage opinions, and pleadings.
  • Assist in all phases of litigation, from discovery to trial preparation.
  • Collaborate directly with partners on international and domestic insurance matters.

 

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience: 2–6 years of legal practice (litigation or insurance coverage preferred)(salary commensurate with experience)(mutiple annual bonus opportunities)
  • Skills: Exceptional writing and analytical skills are non-negotiable. We value strategic thinkers who can navigate complex legal landscapes. You will be handing claims from their inception until settlement and/or trial.
  • Mindset: A desire to be a long-term contributor to a sophisticated, growing practice.
  • Credentials: Strong academic background and active Illinois Bar license (or eligibility to waive in).

 

Why Peters & Nye?

  • Professional Growth: We provide a challenging environment where associates gain hands-on experience much earlier than at larger firms.
  • Firm Culture: We pride ourselves on a congenial and supportive work environment where your contributions are recognized.
  • Competitive Compensation: We offer a competitive salary commensurate with experience.
  • Hybrid Work Opportunity : May work from home twice a week.

Resumes with a cover letter may be sent to Recruiting@Petersnye.com.

 

Benefits:

  • 401(k)
  • Health insurance

 

Work Location: Hybrid remote in South Barrington, IL 60010
