About The Position

An established civil litigation law firm with offices in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Napa Valley. We are seeking a civil litigation defense attorney to join our Las Vegas office. The ideal candidate has 2-5 years of experience and is looking to develop experience in a dynamic, team-oriented, supportive and enjoyable environment. A candidate barred in Nevada and California is a plus. You will report directly to a partner and, depending on your legal experience, will likely be the primary handling attorney on your own cases. You will handle court appearances, discovery, depositions, motions, mediations, pre-trial preparation, and updates to clients. You will also prepare for and participate in trials. We believe our people are our most important asset. That drives our commitment to provide our attorneys with a work environment that helps them achieve their professional goals and supports a healthy work/life balance. For newer attorneys, we provide training and formal mentoring that helps them achieve their professional capabilities. We also offer flexible schedules, hybrid or remote work opportunities, parental and family leave, and other opportunities to support our personnel so they can thrive professionally and personally.
