    Work on complex family matters with direct client responsibility, courtroom exposure and a collaborative specialist team.

    The role

    Build your family law practice through matters involving financial issues, custody and domestic violence. You will prepare pleadings and discovery, work on financial disclosures, collaborate with experts and develop case strategies with colleagues. The role also includes settlement negotiations, representation at hearings and preparation for trial. It offers substantive involvement in client matters rather than a narrow supporting assignment.

    What you will need

    You will need a JD, active California bar membership and at least four years of legal experience with relevant family law work. You should be able to manage client matters effectively, communicate clearly in writing and in court, and work constructively with other attorneys and experts. Strong judgment is important when balancing legal, financial and personal issues in sensitive disputes.
