Litigation Examiner

Most days tend to involve a blend of file review, attorney coordination, and reserve and authority work — reading pleadings, discovery, and counsel reports, evaluating exposure, and partnering with defense counsel on strategy. You'll often spend part of the time on mediation preparation and authority requests that litigation work requires.

The harder part is often the legal complexity combined with the cumulative weight of carrying litigation exposure. You'll typically coordinate with defense counsel, senior leadership, and reinsurers, where careful reserves and authority management shape outcomes.

People who tend to thrive here are technically expert, comfortable with litigation processes, and skilled at influencing across the litigation team. The trade-off is the cumulative pressure of carrying litigated claims and the legal exposure that comes with the work. If you find satisfaction in producing examination work that holds up under legal and audit scrutiny, the role can be a respected destination in claims.
