The Opportunity

Our client is seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Attorney to join their premier Construction Defect practice group. This is a unique "any experience" opening: we are equally interested in Entry-Level Attorneys eager to build a career in a specialized field, and Lateral Associates from other litigation backgrounds (such as General Liability or PI) looking to pivot into complex, multi-party construction disputes.

For junior candidates, we provide a robust mentorship program and a clear path toward independent case handling. For experienced candidates, we offer a high-level caseload with opportunities for trial experience and client management.

• Discovery: Draft and respond to discovery requests, including complex document productions involving blueprints, job files, and inspection reports.
• Depositions: Prepare for and conduct depositions of plaintiffs, expert witnesses (engineers, architects), and site personnel.

Requirements

• Credentials: Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school and active license in good standing with the California Bar.
• Litigation Interest: A strong desire to master the "nuts and bolts" of construction—you must be comfortable learning how buildings are built and where they fail.
• Writing Skills: Exceptional research and writing skills are required for handling the dense motion practice characteristic of construction law.
• Organization: Ability to thrive in a high-volume environment where cases involve dozens of parties and thousands of pages of technical documents.
• Travel: Willingness to attend on-site inspections and property "walk-throughs" with experts as needed.

Preferred Skills (But Not Required)

• Background in engineering, architecture, or construction management.
