Irvine CA United States Talent Elite Group Full time

Construction Litigation Attorney – Focused on Design Professional Representation


Since 1979, our client has been one of California’s preeminent law firms representing architects, engineers, and other design professionals. Their practice is primarily litigation and largely on the defense side, but also includes plaintiffs’ cases plus contract negotiations and general business counseling for the A/E (architect and engineer) community. Clients include boutique architecture studios and national design firms, plus a range of contractors and property owners. The Firm’s partners regularly lecture and present for the American Institute of Architects, and they represent clients involved in a wide variety of projects from high-end custom residences and retail to healthcare and major public works and transportation hubs. They pride themselves on having a sophisticated practice where our cases are unique with intriguing problems that demand novel and detailed solutions. This is not your run of the mill construction litigation firm.


Job Duties:

  • Research and draft initial petitions and responsive pleadings
  • Research and prepare motions, written discovery, mediation materials, and trial documents
  • Appear in court for contested and uncontested hearings
  • Interact with clients and opposing counsel in a courteous and thoughtful manner
  • Meet or exceed the required annual billable hours


Their associates are treated like REAL attorneys, not just trainees. Associates will have the opportunity to work closely with partners and clients through all levels of the litigation process, from the initial case intake and evaluation through trial (and, occasionally, post-trial proceedings). Every associate is expected to prepare a case evaluation for each file they handle which includes a realistic plan of action. Associates are also expected to handle

pleadings and discovery as necessary to follow through on that plan. Other responsibilities will depend on experience level, but our associates will not be stuck doing document review for days on end. Once having proven your abilities, you will be entrusted with drafting advanced motions, arguing in court, taking and defending depositions, directly advising clients about case strategy, independently attending mediations and negotiating case resolutions, and second-chairing trial.


They want their associates to advance their professional skills and handle more advanced matters so they can continue to improve those skills. They want associates who want to represent their clients, to take their clients’ problems as their own, and want to truly practice law – not just bill the file.


The ideal candidate will be detail-oriented with strong organizational skills, will be able to work well under deadlines in a changing environment, and perform multiple tasks effectively and concurrently while using sound judgment in decision-making.
