Litigation Associate

$220k - $265k

SkyWater Search Partners

An established midsize Los Angeles firm known for high-profile business litigation is seeking a litigation associate with 2-4 years of experience. The litigation team handles sophisticated business disputes and complex commercial litigation across a range of subject areas, including entertainment, employment, intellectual property, real estate, and construction. The ideal candidate is forward-thinking and well-rounded, with the potential to become a leader both within the firm and in the broader legal community.

Qualifications
  • 2-4 years of law firm experience handling sophisticated disputes
  • Excellent written, verbal, analytical, and advocacy skills
  • A proactive, self-directed approach to the work
  • Demonstrated success collaborating in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to develop creative solutions for clients
  • Ability to engage directly with clients, lead significant projects, and deliver excellent client service
  • Strong academic credentials from a nationally recognized law school
  • Active California bar admission required
What the Firm Offers
  • Early, substantive experience. Associates take and defend depositions, handle court hearings, play key roles in jury trials and arbitrations, and manage client relationships. Because of the firm's size, every litigator contributes meaningfully, and advancement is merit-based.
  • High-stakes work. The firm regularly represents sophisticated clients in their most important and sensitive disputes, where the issues are complex and far-reaching.
  • A flexible path to partnership. Partnership timing is driven by each associate's development, contributions to the firm and the legal community, and demonstrated potential as a business developer, rather than a fixed lockstep schedule.
  • Dedicated mentorship. Each new associate is paired with both a partner mentor and an associate mentor to support onboarding and integration.
  • Business development support. Associates work with the firm's marketing and business development team to build a personal business plan aligned with their career goals.
  • Collaborative culture. Business casual, open-door environment with an informal management structure. Community involvement is actively encouraged and supported.
Compensation

Base salary range: $220,000 to $265,000. Total compensation also includes discretionary bonuses.
