  • Draft pleadings, motions, and written discovery
  • Conduct legal research and prepare substantive legal analysis
  • Take and defend depositions
  • Participate in mediations and arbitrations
  • Communicate directly with clients and insurance carriers
  • Collaborate with a team of experienced litigators on complex matters

What We're Looking For

  • Active California bar license (dual licensure a plus)
  • At least 2 years of civil litigation experience
  • Experience with toxic tort or asbestos defense preferred
  • Strong legal research, writing, and advocacy skills
  • Ability to manage multiple deadlines and competing priorities
  • A proactive mindset and ownership of assignments
  • Strong interpersonal and presentation skills
  • Experience with mediations or arbitrations is a plus

Compensation & Growth

Segal McCambridge offers competitive compensation, bonus opportunities, and credit for business origination. Associates benefit from clear paths for advancement and the chance to grow within a firm that values initiative, collaboration, and high-quality work.

Benefits

  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Health savings and flexible spending accounts
  • Paid time off and parental leave
  • Life insurance and employee assistance program
  • Professional development assistance
  • Referral and employee discount programs
