Job Description
The New York City Law Department is seeking applicants for the position of Assistant Corporation Counsel in its Tort Division. The Tort Division's Early Intervention Unit (EIU) is seeking motivated and detail oriented attorneys to join its Insurance Takeover Group (ITO), Pleadings and Representation Group, and to serve as Settlement Negotiators. EIU attorneys serve a vital role in assessing the City's eligibility for insurance coverage from City contractors and insurance carriers, reviewing requests for legal representation from City employees and City contractors in civil tort actions, and ensuring the timely preparation and filing of responsive pleadings on behalf of the City and its employees. These positions offer a unique opportunity to engage in critical early-stage legal analysis and representation decisions that directly impact the City's litigation posture.
Insurance Takeover (ITO)
Attorneys in the ITO group review insurance coverage and defense or indemnification requests from contractors, negotiate defense assumptions with insurers, and advise agencies on the City's defense obligations. Attorneys supervise and consult with outside counsel and other City agencies in connection with the City's defense in insurance takeover cases and in connection with the prosecution of affirmative actions against recalcitrant carriers. The role includes drafting and filing responsive pleadings, conducting legal and factual research, developing early case strategies, and reviewing contracts and insurance policies. Attorneys also conduct training seminars for new attorneys and insurance group paralegals, participate in intra and inter agency colloquia on a variety of insurance-related issues as needed, and assist EIU Claims Specialists.
Pleadings and Representation Group (PRG)
Attorneys in PRG evaluate representation requests from City employees in civil tort actions, ensuring timely preparation and filing of responsive pleadings. The role involves assessing Requests for Legal Assistance, advising agencies on defense responsibilities, conducting legal research, and reviewing relevant case materials.
Settlement Negotiator
Attorneys serving as Negotiators analyze cases for potential settlement, interview involved employees, and work with the City's Comptroller's Office to lead or participate in negotiations. The role includes preparing or reviewing settlement documents, maintaining accurate settlement data, appearing at conferences and mediations, and advising on case valuation and negotiation strategy.
To ensure a broad and comprehensive range of skills and expertise, attorneys within the EIU are cross trained to perform duties across all practice areas. All applicants will be considered for each role.
