Associate Attorney - Civil Litigation
Decruit
Associate attorney job in Los Angeles, CA
At a certain point in your litigation career, the question is no longer whether you can handle the work. It's whether the platform you're on actually supports you, recognizes your contribution, and gives you room to grow without burning you out.
This role is for civil litigators who want to deepen their practice in professional liability, general liability, and premises liability matters within a stable, well structured litigation environment.
The work is consistent, the expectations are clear, and the attorneys around you know what they're doing.
Why this role is worth considering
This opportunity sits within an established litigation group at a respected, mid to large sized firm. The team includes experienced, AV rated litigators and is known internally for strong mentorship and steady case flow.
Associates are expected to take responsibility for their matters, but they are not left to figure things out alone. The culture values preparation, judgment, and reliability over unnecessary intensity.
If you are looking for a role where you can practice law, sharpen your litigation skills, and still have a life outside the office, this environment is designed to support that.
The work itself
You will be responsible for managing active civil litigation matters, with an emphasis on professional liability, general liability, and premises liability. The day to day work typically involves:
Handling cases from early investigation through resolution
Drafting pleadings, motions, and discovery
Taking and defending depositions
Working directly with clients, carriers, and opposing counsel
Participating in mediations, hearings, and trial preparation
The cases require thoughtful advocacy and practical problem solving, not just volume for volume's sake.
How the team operates
This is a hybrid role based in Los Angeles. In-office time is used intentionally for collaboration, mentoring, and case strategy, while flexibility is respected.
Feedback is direct and timely. Associates are evaluated on the quality of their work, their responsiveness, and their ability to manage matters effectively. There is room to grow here, whether that means deeper subject matter expertise or broader responsibility over time.
Compensation and recognition
Base compensation range of $160,000 to $210,000, depending on experience and fit
Performance-based bonuses are a meaningful and expected part of total compensation
Bonus decisions reflect consistency, ownership, and contribution
Hybrid work structure
This is a place where doing solid work, managing cases well, and being dependable is recognized over time.
Who should look closely
Attorneys with civil litigation experience, particularly in professional liability, general liability, or premises liability
Attorneys who want responsibility without chaos
Attorneys who value mentorship and a well run practice
Attorneys looking for a long term platform rather than a short term fix
If you are considering a move and want a civil litigation role that feels deliberate, well supported, and professionally rewarding, this is worth a conversation.

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.

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.
