Associate Attorney

Associate Attorney – Warranty Defense Litigation

Overview
A growing litigation team is seeking a motivated and proactive Associate Attorney to support its expanding warranty defense practice. This role offers an excellent opportunity for an attorney looking to advance their career through hands-on litigation experience, meaningful responsibility, and mentorship from seasoned practitioners. The environment is fast-paced and collaborative, with a strong emphasis on professional growth and continuous learning.

Position Highlights

• Hybrid Work Model: Flexible combination of remote and in-office work.
• Mentorship & Development: Work closely with experienced partners committed to guiding your professional progression.
• Significant Responsibility: Engage in substantive legal work, including drafting briefs, managing discovery, taking depositions, appearing in court, and contributing to trial preparation and strategy.

Qualifications

• Active California Bar license.
• At least 1 year of civil defense litigation experience, including pleadings, motion practice, depositions, written discovery, and case management.
• Experience with California Warranty Law (such as the Song-Beverly Act) is preferred but not mandatory.
• Strong research, writing, and oral advocacy skills, with a genuine interest in litigation.
• Ability to juggle multiple assignments and meet tight deadlines.
• Demonstrated ability to produce high-quality legal work and maintain strong client relationships.

This position offers opportunities to develop critical litigation skills early in your career, including trial involvement and significant client interaction.
