Today, with nearly 250 attorneys in offices throughout California and in Oregon and Washington, D.C., we efficiently and meaningfully assist our clients with complex, multi-disciplinary issues and provide creative solutions. At BBK, we place a high degree of value in creating and nurturing a work environment that attracts the best talent and reflects our commitment to culture, community and equal opportunity. We are proud of our workplace culture, where we respect and value our colleagues for their unique perspectives and experiences. We have an immediate opening for an entry-level attorney to join our team. This is an excellent opportunity for a newly licensed attorney interested in developing a practice in municipal law and code enforcement. Prior experience or internships in public safety matters or civil and criminal prosecution is helpful but not required. The successful candidate will have strong legal research and writing skills, excellent communication abilities, sound judgment, and a desire to build a career serving public agency clients. The attorney will work with experienced attorneys to handle code enforcement matters for our municipal clients, including case preparation, legal research, drafting pleadings and motions, court appearances, and client communication. Training and mentorship will be provided to support professional development. This is a non-partnership-track position that requires travel to client offices and courts throughout California. Candidates must be licensed to practice law in California. The ideal candidate will be based in our Irvine, Ontario, Riverside, or Los Angeles office. The reasonably expected pay scale for an attorney with 1-5 years of experience is $90,000 - $125,000. The actual salary within that range will depend on the selected candidate’s years of practice and experience. Best Best & Krieger is an equal opportunity employer. #J-18808-Ljbffr Best Best & Krieger LLP (BBK)
