Job description

About the Firm

We’re a highly respected California litigation firm with nearly 100 attorneys across multiple offices, known for our results, collaboration, and strong culture. Our people describe us as professional yet grounded; we take our work seriously but enjoy the practice of law together. Because of continued growth (not turnover), we’re adding new attorneys to our Los Angeles team.

We’ve been recognized among the Best Places to Work for our mentorship programs, flexible hybrid schedule, and comprehensive benefits. Attorneys here stay because they’re supported, with training, resources, and genuine opportunities to advance.

About the Role

You’ll handle a mix of complex civil defense matters, including personal injury, premises liability, and professional liability. From day one, you’ll have direct client interaction, work alongside seasoned trial lawyers, and be trusted with meaningful responsibility.

This is an ideal role for an associate who wants to deepen trial and courtroom experience while working on challenging, high-exposure cases for national and Fortune 500 clients.

What You’ll Do

  • Defend clients in general liability, products, and professional liability cases.
  • Draft motions, pleadings, and discovery responses.
  • Take and defend depositions and appear in court regularly.
  • Work with partners to shape case strategy and manage files from start to resolution.
  • Participate in mediations and trials with opportunities to second-chair.

What We’re Looking For

  • J.D. from an ABA-accredited law school.
  • Active California Bar membership in good standing.
  • Minimum 3 years of civil litigation experience (general liability, products, or professional liability preferred).
  • Excellent writing, research, and oral advocacy skills.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple active cases.
  • Trial or deposition experience a plus.
  • Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary : $160,000 – $230,000 DOE + performance-based bonuses.
  • Lower billable requirements than most comparable firms.
  • 100% employer-paid health, dental, and vision for attorneys and dependents.
  • 401(k) with safe harbor + profit-sharing.
  • Unlimited PTO plus 11 paid holidays.
  • Wellness and commuter stipends.
  • CLEs, bar dues, and mentorship fully covered.
  • Hybrid work environment with access to LA-area courts and mediations.
  • A clear path to advancement with structured partner feedback and development support.
  • Create a job alert for this search
