Civil Litigation Attorney – South Orange County
An established and well-regarded civil litigation firm is seeking an experienced attorney to join its South Orange County office. The ideal candidate brings at least 5 years of civil litigation experience and thrives in a dynamic, full-service practice environment.
Our primary focus is business litigation — including employment law, contract disputes, unfair competition, and real estate matters — but our work spans a broad range of legal issues. Candidates with exposure to probate, family law, or transactional matters will find those skills particularly valued here.
The position offers meaningful responsibility from the outset. You will manage matters of varying size and complexity, both independently and in collaboration with other firm attorneys, handling everything from client relations and discovery to law and motion practice and courtroom appearances, including trial. This is not a back-office role — we expect and support active participation at every stage of litigation.
The right candidate will possess strong legal research and writing skills, sound case strategy instincts (both legal and economic), and the self-motivation to manage a demanding caseload with minimal hand-holding.
