Southern California’s dynamic construction market is booming—and so is this rare opportunity to join the nation’s top-ranked construction litigation firm in its thriving Irvine office.

Represented by Mission Recruiting, one of the nation’s leading legal placement firms, this position places you at the center of major public and private construction disputes. You'll be part of a nationally recognized litigation team that handles complex change orders, mechanics liens, surety issues, and delay claims.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Chambers-ranked \#1 in Construction Litigation
• Active caseload with high-value, high-stakes disputes
• Structured partnership track, detailed in the offer letter
• Hands-on trial prep experience in collaboration with elite litigators
• Supportive, team-oriented environment that values mentorship and initiative

What You’ll Do:

• Manage complex litigation matters from pre-suit through trial
• Draft pleadings, motions, discovery, and expert-related documentation
• Handle depositions, mediations, and court appearances
• Collaborate with partners on trial strategy and preparation
• Oversee public and private works litigation involving change orders, delays, and lien issues

What We’re Looking For:

• California-licensed attorney in good standing
• 2–5 years of litigation experience (construction law preferred but not required)
• Strong legal writing and analytical skills
• Prior exposure to construction litigation, engineering background, or experience with competitors is a plus

What You’ll Receive:

• Base salary: $185,000 – $205,000 DOE
• Annual discretionary bonus plus billable hour bonus
• Unlimited PTO and 9 paid holidays
• Full benefits: health, vision, long-term care, life, and disability
