You just passed the Bar or you're early in your litigation journey, and you're ready to actually litigate, not wait your turn.

If you want responsibility, autonomy, and the ability to influence outcomes, you’ll thrive here.

  • California Bar in good standing
    • Strong civil litigation foundation
    • Exceptional writing and analytical skills
    • Professional, composed, and attentive to detail

    • Experienced attorneys who want autonomy and trust
    • Strong writers with sharp analytical skills
    • Confident communicators who thrive under responsibility
    • Organized, driven, and committed to excellence

• Entry Level (0–2 years post-bar): $85,000+ base salary
• Mid to Senior Level (3+ years litigation experience): $150,000+ base salary
