Description

Are you a confident, self-driven litigator who thrives in a fast-paced environment and wants the flexibility of working 100% remotely?

We're partnering with a highly respected plaintiff-side firm seeking an experienced Senior Litigation Attorney to support a lead partner on asbestos and complex civil litigation matters. This is a long-term contract opportunity with immediate start and consistent workload.

Requirements

+ California licensed attorney in good standing

+ Strong background in civil litigation (plaintiff or defense)

+ Plaintiff-side experience strongly preferred

+ Asbestos litigation experience is a big plus, but not required (plaintiff, not defense)

+ Proven ability to work independently, problem-solve, and manage deadlines without daily supervision

+ Comfortable handling a fast-paced, high-volume docket

+ Excellent legal writing, research, and organizational skills

+ Tech-savvy and able to work efficiently in a remote setting
