  • Represent clients in court hearings, motions arguments, and trials
  • Regularly update clients (insured clients and insurance companies) on case progress, legal developments, and potential risks
  • Mentor junior lawyers (depending upon experience) and contribute to the team's overall knowledge and strategy formulation
