Job Description

If you thrive in fast-paced litigation and don’t need someone to spell out what comes next—you’ll fit right in here.

A senior trial attorney at a respected civil litigation firm in Irvine has just stepped into a managing partner’s caseload, and now he needs a right hand. Someone who knows how to jump into active files, manage deadlines, and keep cases moving without constant direction.

This is a full-time, in-office role —not because the firm doesn’t trust remote work, but because the volume is real and collaboration is constant. You'll be part of a tight-knit team known for tackling everything from personal injury to construction defect and brain injury defense. Think real lawyering, real trial prep, and real responsibility.

 

What You’ll Be Trusted With:

  • Drafting and formatting pleadings, discovery, and pre-trial documents

  • Summarizing depositions and medical records

  • Managing case calendars, hearings, and trial dates

  • Coordinating with court personnel, clients, and expert witnesses

  • Filing documents with state and federal courts (electronic and physical)

  • Keeping the attorney organized and ahead of the curve on all deadlines

 

What You Bring:

  • Strong background in civil litigation (insurance defense is a plus)

  • Deep familiarity with the CA Code of Civil Procedure and local rules

  • Ability to work independently and juggle multiple active files

  • No paralegal certificate required—your experience speaks for itself

  • Excellent communication, writing, and time management skills

 

Compensation & Benefits:

  • Salary range: $80,000 to $100,000 , depending on experience

  • 100% employer-paid base plans for dental and vision coverage

  • Medical (PPO and HMO options) with low-cost employee contributions

  • 401(k) with a company match

  • Generous PTO: 15 days/year to start, increasing with tenure

  • Long-term disability coverage, pet insurance, and FSA plans

  • On-site gym access (Irvine), car wash service, EV charging station

  • Semi-monthly pay, paid holidays, and casual business attire

 

This is a real job with real impact. You won’t be chasing copies or waiting on vague instructions. You’ll be an integral part of the litigation team—relied on, respected, and busy from day one.

Apply now to join a trial-forward defense firm that values competence, efficiency, and initiative. Mission Recruiting is proud to represent this opportunity confidentially.

 

Salary Range: $80,000–$100,000
