Our boutique law firm client is seeking an experienced Litigation Attorney to provide temporary, part-time coverage during an extended medical leave. The firm's practice has a strong concentration in real estate-related disputes; however, candidates with broader general civil litigation experience will also be considered. This fully remote role is best suited for a California-licensed attorney who can dedicate 10–20 hours per week, work independently with minimal supervision, and quickly become productive within an active litigation practice.

  • Manage assigned matters and ensure compliance with court deadlines and litigation schedules
  • Communicate and collaborate with lead counsel regarding case developments and litigation strategy
  • Attend hearings and other litigation-related proceedings as needed
  • Provide general litigation support across a variety of active civil matters.

Requirements

  • Active California Bar membership in good standing
  • Approximately 7+ years of civil litigation experience preferred
  • Experience handling discovery, motion practice, and day-to-day litigation management
  • Ability to assume responsibility for active matters with minimal training or supervision
  • Real estate litigation experience preferred but not required
  • Strong legal research, writing, and analytical skills
  • Comfortable working remotely and managing workload independently
  • Writing sample required for consideration.
