I've been working at 10 ~ 20 Atty boutique specializing in impact class actions (I couldn't describe it in any more exacts words, please bear with me) for 1.5 y out of law school. I've actually been thinking of moving to defense practice if possible. Would insurance defense be a go-to...? Because there aren't many positions for this much-specialized tort defense.

There’s a lot firms doing product liability mdls. Maybe your experience might translate? That’s what I did when I was in biglaw. It’s a cool practice area too because you take a lot of deps as a junior. Harder to make partner in because the work is usually for one big client that one partner hordes.

I’d recommend that group over many other practices in biglaw though.
