Overview
The Office of the County Counsel for Santa Clara is a distinguished public law office, providing legal representation to the County, its Board of Supervisors, elected officials, and various departments and agencies. The Office engages in a broad spectrum of litigation and policy issues that have a profound impact on the well-being of the County's 1.9 million residents. Recognized for its excellence, the Office has received numerous accolades from prestigious legal organizations.
Current Opportunities
The Office is in search of skilled and motivated attorneys to fill vacancies across several specialized teams. While prior experience in the public sector is advantageous, it is not a prerequisite for all positions.
Civil Rights, Tort, and Employment Litigation Team
We are looking for a seasoned employment litigator to join our Civil Rights, Tort, and Employment Litigation Team. This team is responsible for defending the County against lawsuits involving not only the County itself but also its officials and employees. The scope of litigation includes employment disputes, tort claims, civil rights violations, medical malpractice, and public property safety issues. Our attorneys manage all stages of litigation in both state and federal courts and provide guidance to County departments on risk management to enhance policies and reduce legal risks.
Health and Hospitals Team
We seek an experienced attorney specializing in health care to become part of our Health and Hospitals Team, which offers legal counsel to the County's health care system. This team advises various medical facilities, including a major acute care hospital and a psychiatric hospital, as well as a network of health centers throughout the County. Legal support is also provided to departments focused on behavioral health, public health, and emergency medical services.
The ideal candidate will possess extensive experience in providing legal advice to large health care entities. Key skills include health care contracting, regulatory compliance, and familiarity with California's health care regulations. Experience in advising on quality and risk management within health care settings is also beneficial.
General Qualifications
- Active member of the California State Bar;
- Proven track record of dedication and academic achievement;
- Ability to manage multiple projects effectively under tight deadlines;
- Flexibility and eagerness to learn new areas of law;
- Self-driven with a strong sense of ownership over legal matters;
- Collaborative team player in a supportive office environment;
- Exceptional legal research and writing capabilities;
- Strong communication skills to convey complex legal concepts clearly;
- Aptitude for building and maintaining productive relationships with County staff.
Compensation and Benefits
Salary levels are commensurate with experience and qualifications. For attorneys with five or more years of experience, the annual salary range is competitive. The County provides comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance for attorneys and their dependents, along with substantial pension benefits and life insurance coverage.
