Elite courtroom exposure: You'll work directly with attorneys who are trusted by BigLaw to mentor their own Trial-forward culture: Associates don't sit on the sidelines Female-led and inclusive: Built by trial lawyers who understand the challenges facing women in law Flexible schedule: Hybrid work model available Quarterly bonuses for those who exceed 170 billable hours/month Generous benefits including 100% paid health, dental, and vision Unlimited PTO—get your work done, hit your goals, and the rest is flexible Compensation: $110,000 – $200,000 base salary Quarterly Bonuses 401(k) with 4% match, FSA, CE, mileage/travel reimbursement, and more This is more than a job—it's a chance to be trained by one of California's best litigators and potentially step into her shoes as she plans for succession.
