  • Associate Attorney - Civil Litigation

    Decruit

    Law clerk job in San Diego, CA

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.
