We value collaboration and accountability. Depending on experience and fit, some flexibility may be available—but expect this to be anchored in the Newport Beach office. If you’re the person who takes pride in immaculate books and hates “close enough,” we want you #J-18808-Ljbffr The Ledger Law Firm
