Construction Defect Associate
Locations: Los Angeles, Orange County, or San Diego, CA (Hybrid – 2 Days/Week In Office)
Experience: Construction Defect Litigation Experience Required
Salary Range: $125,000 – $185,000 + Bonus

Our client, a nationally recognized civil litigation defense firm, is seeking a Construction Defect Associate to join its growing California team. This is an excellent opportunity to work alongside experienced litigators representing developers, general contractors, subcontractors, design professionals, and material suppliers in complex construction defect matters involving both commercial and residential projects.

 

What You'll Work On:

  • Defending construction defect claims from inception through resolution
  • Representing developers, contractors, subcontractors, and design professionals in complex litigation matters
  • Managing discovery, including drafting and responding to written discovery
  • Taking and defending depositions
  • Attending court hearings, mediations, and site inspections
  • Collaborating on litigation strategy and case evaluation throughout all phases of a matter

 

What We're Looking For:

  • Prior construction defect litigation experience is required
  • Strong deposition, discovery, and case management experience
  • Excellent legal research, writing, and analytical skills
  • Strong communication and client relationship management abilities
  • Self-motivated professional who thrives in a collaborative environment
  • JD from an ABA-accredited law school
  • Active California Bar admission required

 

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Hybrid schedule with 2 days per week in-office
  • Opportunity to work on sophisticated construction defect matters for a diverse client base
  • Direct mentorship from experienced litigators and trial attorneys
  • Structured training and professional development programs
  • Opportunities to gain hands-on experience in mediation, arbitration, and trial work
  • Clear path for long-term career growth within a collaborative and expanding practice

 

Compensation & Benefits:

  • Base salary range of $125,000 – $185,000 + performance-based bonus
  • Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, 401(k), flexible spending accounts, and pet insurance

 

This is an excellent opportunity for an attorney seeking meaningful responsibility, hands-on litigation experience, and long-term growth within a highly regarded construction defect practice.
