Segal McCambridge, a national litigation firm, is seeking an Associate Attorney for its construction defect practice group in our West Los Angeles office. The position will involve hands-on work with significant responsibilities in high-profile matters. This is an excellent opportunity to work within a seasoned team where attorneys will have the ability to handle the full lifecycle of a matter but also receive training and mentorship from partners with deep experience in these practice areas. This is a hybrid position, with a flexible mixture of remote or in-office attendance.

We seek candidates with:

Current, active license to practice law in California;
Minimum of 4 years’ experience in construction defect defense litigation, including in drafting pleadings, motion practice, written discovery, depositions, arbitrations/mediations, trial 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 for exponential growth and support from a national defense firm. 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 materials, take depositions, appear in court, and play key roles at trials. Compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience. There is also opportunity for bonus and credit for business origination.

If you are looking to join a growing, collaborative firm, please apply and include your cover letter and resume.
