Segal McCambridge, a national litigation firm, is seeking an Associate Attorney for its civil litigation practice group in our Los Angeles office. The position will involve hands-on work across a range of practice areas, including defending product liability, wrongful death, and similar high exposure actions. This is an excellent opportunity for attorneys looking to hone and develop their litigation skills while receiving training and mentorship from partners with deep experience in these practice areas. This is a hybrid position, with a flexible mixture of remote and intermittent in-office attendance.

We seek candidates with:

• Current, active license to practice law in California;
• Minimum of 2 years’ experience in civil litigation, including in drafting pleadings, motion practice, written discovery, depositions, and other facets of the litigation process;
• Excellent legal-research, writing, and advocacy skills;
• The ability to multitask and manage multiple deadlines; 
• Strong interpersonal and presentation skills;
• Proven ability to produce top quality work;
• A willingness to be proactive and take ownership of projects and assignments.

The attorney will be afforded the opportunity to join an established firm’s newer office which has exponential opportunities for future growth and expansion. Our lawyers work on sophisticated matters in a collaborative team environment. Associates take ownership of case management (along with a supervising partner), draft briefs and discovery material, take depositions, appear in court, and play key roles at trials. Compensation is competitive with opportunity for bonus and credit for business origination.

If you are looking for an opportunity with a growing, collaborative firm, please apply and include your cover letter and resume.
