Litigation Associate Attorney – Construction Defect / Business Litigation

Locations: Roseville, CA
Experience: 5+ years
Compensation: $130,000 – $180,000+ DOE, plus monthly bonus program
Schedule: Hybrid flexibility

Our client, a growing multi-state civil litigation and business law firm with a presence across the western U.S., is seeking a Litigation Associate to join its Roseville office. This opportunity is ideal for a motivated attorney who wants substantive litigation experience, strong mentorship, direct client contact, and a long-term growth path with a respected regional firm.

What You'll Work On:

• Construction defect litigation from investigation through resolution
• Real estate, business, and complex civil disputes
• Builder and developer representation
• Taking and defending depositions
• Court appearances and law and motion practice
• Mediations and settlement negotiations

What We're Looking For:

• 5+ years of civil litigation experience
• Active California bar admission
• Strong legal writing and analytical skills
• Hands-on experience with discovery, depositions, and motion practice
• Ability to manage cases independently while collaborating with partners and staff
• Construction defect, real estate, and/or business litigation experience strongly preferred
• Dual licensure in Arizona, Nevada, and/or Texas is a plus, but not required

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Substantive responsibility and real courtroom experience early on
• Direct client interaction and hands-on litigation exposure
• Strong partner mentorship and a clear long-term growth path
• A collegial, team-oriented environment at a growing regional firm

Benefits:
Competitive compensation with a monthly billable-hour bonus program and annual discretionary bonuses, plus full medical, dental, and vision coverage, a 401(k) with firm safe harbor contribution, life insurance, an employee assistance program, and a flexible spending account.

If you're a litigator ready to take on meaningful work and grow with a firm that invests in its people, this is a role worth a close look.
