Salary: $150,000 – $225,000 base salary
Remote (Southern California preferred, not required)
Build Your Practice—Without the Office
If you're a California-licensed attorney with construction defect defense experience, this is an opportunity to take ownership of your cases, deepen your litigation experience, and work remotely. This role offers hands-on litigation from the start, with direct responsibility and client interaction.
What You Will Do
- Defend construction defect cases for developers, builders, and subcontractors
- Handle rideshare and personal injury defense matters as needed
- Draft and argue motions, including dispositive motions
- Manage discovery, meet and confer strategy, and case deadlines
- Take and defend depositions and prepare witnesses
- Work with experts and manage expert discovery
- Support mediations, settlement strategy, and client communication
What We’re Looking For
- Active California Bar license (required)
- Construction defect insurance defense experience (required)
- At least 1 year of civil litigation experience (insurance defense preferred)
- Strong legal writing, organization, and ability to manage deadlines in a remote environment
-
Bonus points for experience in rideshare defense, personal injury, or general liability is a plus.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Fully remote structure with flexibility on location
- Meaningful case ownership and real litigation experience
- Mix of construction defect and broader liability matters
- Clear compensation structure with room for growth
- Established firm known for practical strategy and client service
