  • Counsel clients on shareholder activism preparedness, governance audits, bylaw reviews, and advance notice provisions.

  • Advise clients on mergers and acquisitions, including transaction structuring, board processes, disclosure obligations, and litigation risk management.

  • 3–6 years of experience at a major law firm with significant exposure to Delaware corporate law.

  • Strong understanding of the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL), fiduciary duties, and Delaware Court of Chancery practice.

  • Experience advising on special committee matters, conflict transactions, corporate governance, or mergers and acquisitions is preferred.

  • Experience with Nevada corporate law is a plus.

  • Outstanding legal research, drafting, analytical, and communication skills.

  • Ability to independently manage multiple sophisticated matters while delivering exceptional client service.

  • Admission to the California Bar is preferred; Delaware or Nevada bar admission is a plus but not required.

  • Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, retirement savings, paid time off, professional development opportunities, and additional employee wellness benefits.
