📋 Role Overview & Responsibilities

The Orange County office of Lewis Brisbois, a full-service AmLaw 100 firm, is actively seeking an attorney to join its Construction Litigation Practice.

The ideal candidate will have strong research and writing skills and at least two (2) to ten (10) years of experience in all phases of insurance defense litigation including case management, motion practice, and discovery, as well as handling hearings, depositions, arbitrations, and trials. Admission to the California Bar is required.

Lewis Brisbois' Construction Litigation Practice is staffed by nearly 80 construction law attorneys nationwide who have successfully represented defendants in significant exposure cases in numerous construction law areas. The group has provided a defense for a myriad of property and personal injury claims, for both businesses and individuals who may be insured or self-insured. While the attorneys within the firm are equipped to handle a wide variety of matters, we excel in the litigation and trial of catastrophic injury, wrongful death, and complex litigation cases. The Construction Litigation Practice partners and senior associates are seasoned and well-respected trial attorneys who have broad trial experience. Our attorneys have been cited by the National Law Journal for obtaining one of the "Top Ten Defense Verdicts of the Year," and have received other prominent recognition.

Although we would prefer that you have some insurance defense experience, we are also interested in working with developing talented attorneys who come to us with excellent skills in any litigation arena. If you have substantive litigation experience and are looking for an opportunity in a growing, collaborative firm, we invite you to apply.

Lewis Brisbois offers competitive compensation and in addition, we offer a range of benefits including medical, dental, life insurance, 401(k) with employer contribution, PTO for eligible classifications and a bonus for those who exceed their minimum hourly requirements.
