Jake Bottari

Jake Bottari is an associate at Monteleone Law Offices, P.L.L.C. in Boise. His practice includes personal injury, wrongful death, insurance coverage and bad faith, and construction-defect litigation. After spending much of the prior decade working for insurance defense firms, he now represents individuals in the kinds of personal injury and wrongful death cases he previously defended. That background gives him direct familiarity with how disputed injury claims are evaluated and litigated.

Jake earned his J.D. from the University of Idaho College of Law in 2014 and received a B.A., cum laude, from the College of Idaho in 2010. He was admitted to the Idaho State Bar in 2014 and is licensed to practice in Idaho state and federal courts. His legal education and early defense-side experience developed a foundation in civil litigation, insurance issues, and the procedural demands of serious injury cases.

His work covers claims involving personal injuries, fatal accidents, insurance coverage disputes, alleged insurer bad faith, and construction defects. Jake’s years representing defendants in complex litigation now inform his plaintiff-side practice, where he can assess arguments, evidence, and strategies from both perspectives. This experience supports his ability to identify disputed issues, prepare claims for negotiation or litigation, and explain the process to injured clients facing insurers and other opposing parties.

Jake Bottari brings more than a decade of litigation experience to his work for injured individuals and families. His practice is grounded in the same categories of disputes he handled while representing insurers and other defendants, giving him a practical understanding of claim evaluation and defense strategy. He uses that background to help clients pursue personal injury and wrongful death matters while addressing coverage, bad faith, and related civil litigation issues when they arise.
