  • Strong communication and client relationship management abilities
  • Self-motivated professional who thrives in a collaborative environment
  • JD from an ABA-accredited law school
  • Active California Bar admission required

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Hybrid schedule with 2 days per week in-office
  • Opportunity to work on sophisticated construction defect matters for a diverse client base

  • Structured training and professional development programs
  • Opportunities to gain hands-on experience in mediation, arbitration, and trial work
  • Clear path for long-term career growth within a collaborative and expanding practice

  • Base salary range of $125,000 – $185,000 + performance-based bonus
  • Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, 401(k), flexible spending accounts, and pet insurance

This is an excellent opportunity for an attorney seeking meaningful responsibility, hands-on litigation experience, and long-term growth within a highly regarded construction defect practice.
