Decruit
Associate attorney job in Los Angeles, CA
If you are an associateattorney practicing in general liability or insurance defense and are selectively exploring new opportunities, this is a role designed for attorneys who value consistency, responsibility, and a credible platform to continue building their practice.
This opening is with a well established, mid to large sized firm with strong reputations in litigation. The teams are composed of AV rated attorneys and are commonly recognized as solid places to build a long term career, with an emphasis on mentorship, professionalism, and retention.
This is not a one-size-fits-all environment, but across these teams, associates are generally trusted with meaningful responsibility earlier than in more hierarchical settings, while still having access to guidance and support.
The practice
Associates handle a range of general liability and insurance defense matters, managing cases from inception through resolution. While the mix varies by team and matter, work typically includes:
Drafting pleadings, motions, and discovery
Taking and defending depositions
Communicating directly with clients, carriers, and opposing counsel
Participating in mediations, hearings, and trial preparation
Developing sound litigation judgment with support from senior attorneys
The work is active, practical, and designed to build transferable litigation skills over time.

Associates are evaluated on the quality of their work, reliability, and ability to manage matters effectively. The culture across these teams is straightforward and performance-oriented, without unnecessary politics.
Compensation, bonuses, and growth
Base compensation range of $160,000 to $210,000, depending on experience and overall fit
Performance-based bonuses are an established and meaningful component of total compensation
Bonus decisions are tied to contribution and consistency rather than arbitrary or one-off factors
Hybrid work structure
For attorneys who want their performance to be recognized over time, these roles offer a more direct connection between effort, responsibility, and reward.
Who this is a good fit for
Attorneys with experience in general liability, insurance defense, or closely related litigation
Attorneys who value a respected platform and solid mentorship
Attorneys looking for long term growth, whether that means senior responsibility or upward mobility
Attorneys who want steady, substantive litigation work without constant uncertainty
If you are considering a move and want to continue building as a litigator within a stable, well regarded environment, these roles offer the scope and structure to do that thoughtfully.

Haight Brown & Bonesteel LLP - Associate Attorney (4-7 Years of Experience)
Haight Brown & Bonesteel 4.1
Associate attorney job in Los Angeles, CA
Haight Brown & Bonesteel LLP is seeking an experienced litigation associate with 4-7 years of civil defense litigation experience to join our downtown Los Angeles office. This is a full-time, in-office position; we are not seeking applicants who want to work remotely. Instead, we are looking for candidates who are eager to build a long-term career at the firm and grow into partnership within four years (potentially sooner) through consistent performance, leadership, and contribution.
The ideal candidate is a self-starter, able to work autonomously, and eager to learn what it takes to prepare a case for trial and second-chair by handling a handful of witnesses. We seek someone who is not just looking for a job but is committed to developing the skills and leadership qualities necessary for partnership. The candidate must have a demonstrated ability to manage all phases of litigation, including taking and defending depositions, particularly of plaintiffs and expert witnesses, drafting and responding to discovery and pleadings, preparing and arguing motions, managing case files independently, and must be willing to travel to northern California offices when necessary. Strong research and writing skills are a must, and the candidate must have the ability to prioritize and handle multiple cases in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
Haight is a well-established California law firm with offices throughout the state. Our culture emphasizes collaboration and open communication, transparency in career development and growth opportunities, work-life balance that supports long-term success, and professional development with a clear partnership track.
Base salary range: $150,000 - $180,000 per year with an annual $20,000 bonus for those who meet the firm's quarterly billable hour requirements.
We offer a competitive benefits package, including medical, dental, vision, 401(k), life insurance and flexible spending accounts.
