A bit about us:

This long-established civil litigation defense firm was founded in Irvine, California in 1997 and has since expanded to include nearly two dozen attorneys across three states. For more than two decades, the firm has maintained an AV rating from Martindale-Hubbell, reflecting its reputation for excellence, professionalism, and integrity.

The team represents a wide range of clients—from individuals to Fortune 500 companies—and also serves as panel counsel for numerous major insurers. Their practice focuses on defending clients in civil lawsuits, from routine accident claims to complex, multi-party, high-exposure litigation.

What sets this firm apart is its ability to deliver large-firm quality and results with the accessibility, efficiency, and personal attention of a boutique practice. The attorneys are known for their hands-on approach, early case evaluation, and readiness to take cases to trial when needed. The culture emphasizes collaboration, client service, and a practical, solutions-driven mindset.

Why join us?
  • Work with a respected defense firm known for its trial strength and long-standing client relationships
  • Handle diverse and challenging civil litigation matters
  • Collaborate with experienced, supportive attorneys who value teamwork and professional growth
  • Enjoy a balanced environment that combines big-firm resources with small-firm flexibility and culture
  • Competitive compensation and opportunities for advancement

Job Details

This position is ideal for an attorney with 3–10+ years of civil litigation experience who is looking to join a well-respected defense firm with a strong trial practice. The role involves managing cases from inception through resolution or trial, including discovery, motion practice, depositions, and court appearances. The firm’s caseload includes a variety of civil defense matters such as personal injury, premises liability, construction defect, and complex tort litigation. Attorneys in this role work closely with clients, insurers, and colleagues to develop cost-effective strategies and achieve favorable outcomes. The firm offers a competitive compensation package commensurate with experience, comprehensive benefits, hybrid work flexibility, and a collaborative, growth-oriented culture.
