Many of our recruiters make 30 to 40 placements per year, while recruiters at competitor firms are likely to make four or five. Unlike other placement firms that can only tell you about openings at major AmLaw firms, we place candidates of all backgrounds in firms of all sizes. While other legal recruiters only represent a narrow band of candidates from top law firms and top law schools, our research, firm contacts, and market insight allow us to place hundreds of candidates each year who do not fit this mold. It is rare that we do not get candidates we represent interviews and offers. No one in the world is better at legal recruiting and placement than BCG Attorney Search.

BCG Attorney Search will confidentially review your application and will not forward your materials to the firm without first discussing the opportunity with you.

About the Job:

A boutique law firm with a growing hybrid litigation and transactional practice is seeking a mid-to senior-level Associate to join its team.

The firm offers a unique opportunity for litigators who are interested in expanding into corporate and transactional work while maintaining a strong litigation practice. Associates work closely with partners on complex business disputes as well as transactional matters within a niche, industry-focused client base. The firm maintains a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment where attorneys are given meaningful responsibility and exposure across matters.

With a manageable 1,600–1,650 billable hour requirement and a flexible hybrid schedule, the firm prioritizes sustainable practice and strong work-life balance without sacrificing the quality or sophistication of the work.

Job Responsibilities:

• Handling complex business litigation matters
• Assisting with and eventually leading transactional matters, including asset sales, land and equipment transactions, and corporate structuring
• Working directly with clients across disputes and deal matters
• Collaborating closely with partners on strategy and execution
• Contributing to long-term client relationships within a specialized industry base

This position offers:

• A true hybrid litigation/transactional practice
• Exposure to industry-specific clients, including commercial agriculture and related businesses
• Significant responsibility in a small-firm, entrepreneurial setting
• A supportive environment for attorneys transitioning or broadening practice areas

Requirements:

• JD from an accredited law school
• 3–8 years of litigation experience
• Interest in incorporating corporate and transactional work into practice
• Strong written and oral advocacy skills
• Entrepreneurial mindset and client-focused approach
• Admission to the GA bar

What's Offered:

• 1,600–1,650 billable hour requirement
• Hybrid schedule
• Strong work-life balance
• Clear opportunity for long-term growth within the firm

If you are interested, feel free to apply or reach out directly to learn more.

Work Setting: Hybrid (2–3 days in office)

Compensation: $75,000 – $120,000 annually

A respected Sacramento-based litigation firm is seeking a Paralegal to join its growing team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone early in their career—or with prior litigation exposure—looking to grow in a supportive, hands-on environment.

What You'll Do

• Support attorneys across active litigation matters
• Assist with case management, discovery, and document preparation
• Coordinate records, filings, and trial prep
• Work closely with attorneys to move cases efficiently

What They're Looking For

• Prior experience with medical records is a plus, but not required
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
• Ability to thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced setting

Compensation & Benefits

The annual salary for this position is between [$75,000 – $120,000 annually]. Factors which may affect pay within this range may include geography/market, skills, education, experience and other qualifications of the successful candidate.

• Health insurance (80% employer-paid)
• 401(k) with up to 4% match
• PTO: 10 days/year + 10 paid holidays

This role offers strong mentorship, meaningful work, and room to grow long-term within the firm.

Why This Firm Stands Out

This established multi-state civil litigation firm is selectively hiring associates who want meaningful responsibility, long-term stability, and a voice at the table across various practice areas.

What differentiates this opportunity:

• Multiple attorneys with 20+ year careers at the firm
• Support staff tenure of 20–40 years
• Hybrid work model with structured workflow
• Quarterly bonus eligibility starting at 1,850 hours
• 401(k) eligibility immediately upon hire
• Benefits effective within 30 days

The firm has earned industry recognition through attorney distinctions including:

• Attorneys selected to Super Lawyers
• AV PreeminentTM peer ratings from Martindale-Hubbell
• Rankings in Best Law Firms published by U.S. News & World Report

These recognitions reflect peer-respected litigation strength and consistent client results.

Culture & Stability

The firm retains a core team with decades of tenure. Several attorneys began as summer associates and advanced to partnership and managing partner roles with Partners after many years having moved on to successfully open their own firms.

This is a firm where:

• Attorneys can "agree to disagree" and be heard
• Career progression has historically been internal
• Long-term retention is common
• Support staff are deeply experienced

The firm models its workflow after large firms but maintains the accessibility of a mid-sized platform.

Practice Areas

• Business Litigation
• Casualty Litigation
• Labor & Employment
• Insurance Coverage & Bad Faith

What You'll Do

• Manage cases independently from intake to resolution
• Conduct liability and property coverage analysis
• Draft motions, pleadings, and dispositive briefs
• Take and defend depositions
• Appear in court
• Advise clients directly

The ideal candidate is comfortable running files with minimal supervision and understands sequencing without handholding.

Ideal Background

• 3+ years civil litigation experience
• Strong research and writing record
• Active California Bar
• AZ or NV Bar admission is an advantage

Who Thrives Here

This role is well-suited for attorneys who want:

• A structured but sustainable model
• Quarterly bonus upside
• Autonomy without micromanagement
• Direct client exposure
• Long-term partnership track potential
