Attorney | Professional Liability Defense | Hybrid | 147639

Our client represents the law itself.

No, not in the grandiose superhero sense (though you may feel like one at times), but in the subtle, high-stakes world of professional liability defense—where the reputations, careers, and livelihoods of legal and insurance professionals hang delicately in the balance.

Our client, a Los Angeles-based law firm, has built its name and reputation by defending the very people who uphold the justice system: attorneys, judges, insurance agents, and accountants. These are not just “clients”—they are colleagues, peers, and fellow practitioners whose life's work depends on skilled, strategic advocacy when allegations of malpractice or misconduct arise.

If you're a litigation attorney with 2–8 years of experience, a sharp legal mind, and an instinct for navigating high-pressure, high-stakes professional disputes—we want to talk to you.

About the Role

As a key member of our legal team, you will take on the nuanced and intellectually demanding work of defending professionals in malpractice actions and related claims.

You'll handle complex litigation from inception through resolution, including:

• Drafting pleadings and motions
• Managing discovery
• Conducting depositions
• Engaging in settlement negotiations
• And, for the right candidate, trial work

You will work alongside senior partners with decades of experience and a sterling reputation in the field—people who believe that mentorship is not just a buzzword but a professional responsibility.

What You Bring

• 2–8 years of litigation experience, ideally with exposure to professional liability, legal malpractice, or complex civil litigation
• Impeccable writing and oral advocacy skills—you know how to persuade, how to think two steps ahead, and how to write with both force and clarity
• Good judgment—the kind that isn't taught in law school
• A disposition that values discretion, professionalism, and civility in all client and courtroom interactions

The Environment

This is a firm that prizes performance and professionalism. Our attorneys are trusted not just because they're competent—but because they're calm, courteous, and razor-sharp under pressure.

Compensation & Perks

• Salary Range: $130,000 – $220,000, commensurate with experience
• Discretionary End-of-Year Bonus, based on individual performance, firm contribution, and—yes—civility
• Flexible Work Environment (hybrid or fully remote)
• Comprehensive benefits to include 100% covered medical, dental, and vision
