People are our number one priority. We value our clients and employees above all else. We are in search of a junior associate litigation attorney to join our litigation team at our Sacramento location. We are only looking for team members who care first and foremost about people, are kind, accountable, and driven. They must be organized, emotionally intelligent, work well independently and as a team, and work well under pressure. 

Position:   

This position is an entry level associate attorney position. The candidate will be part of a litigation team that handles contested probate matters, contested conservatorships, trust litigation, financial elder abuse, real estate litigation, and landlord-tenant disputes.

The candidate must have strong legal research and writing skills, strong oral advocacy skills, and be extremely comfortable working with various technology platforms and programs such as Microsoft Office and Outlook. Familiarity with Clio Manage and other knowledge-based software is a plus. As this is an entry level position, no experience is required but familiarity in trust and estate litigation and general California Civil Procedure is a plus but not required.
