Litigation Attorney

No buzzwords litigation position

Enjoy the benefits of practicing outside the big city, in Ventura County. Use your brain and your creativity on interesting matters for loyal clients. Team up with our 20 partners, take responsibility as you learn, work directly with clients, and contribute your own insights.

Sure, we hope you are a “top caliber,” “ideal candidate” with “strong academic credentials,” and “excellent writing and communications skills.” But we know there is more to excellent lawyering than help-wanted clichés. We are looking for candidates with vision, humility, intellectual independence, patience, sensitivity, grit, and practicality. And in exchange we offer good salaries with annual advances; low billable hour requirements (1650 hours a year); a 401(k) plan; health insurance; paid Bar dues and MCLE expenses; and genuine opportunities for partnership. 

If you’d like to be considered as a future associate at Ferguson Case Orr Paterson, please show us some initiative with a cover letter that explains: why practicing in Ventura County appeals to you, what makes you stand out from other applicants, what you want to accomplish as a lawyer -- and why us. We’d prefer three-five years’ experience, but if you’re a newer lawyer, convince us that you’d be a good choice.
