We're determined to make a difference and are proud to be an insurance company that goes well beyond coverages and policies. Working here means having every opportunity to achieve your goals - and to help others accomplish theirs, too. Join our team as we help shape the future.
The Hartford is seeking to hire a Senior Billing Analyst to join our Legal Operations team. We are looking for motivated attorneys to join this team responsible for reviewing and analyzing outside counsel legal bill invoices.
As a Senior Billing Analyst you will be expected to provide a breadth and depth of understanding around the billing process in specific practice areas.

In this capacity, Analysts as reviewers will be expected to understand complex legal issues covering areas of law ranging from initial pleadings through trial preparation and appeal. Analysts will further be expected to provide feedback regarding legal issues for discussion with the firm.
