Senior Litigation Attorney (10+ Years) | Planned Succession Opportunity

We are seeking a seasoned litigation attorney (10+ years) to step into a planned retirement transition at a well-established law firm.

The retiring attorney will be involved in the training and handoff to the new incoming litigation supervisor.

Why This Role Is Different

This is a rare opportunity to:

• Inherit established, recurring client relationships
• Grow strategically rather than rebuild from scratch
• Transition into a leadership role without legacy friction

We are looking for a litigator who sees the next decade as a platform-building phase, not just “another job.”

Practice Focus

The ideal candidate has deep experience in one or more of the following:

• Business & commercial litigation
• Real estate disputes
• Employment defense (single-plaintiff and/or wage & hour)

Portable business is welcome and rewarded but not required. What matters most is credibility, judgment, and the ability to steward long-standing client relationships.

What You'll Have

• A planned, supported retirement transition
• Clients who already expect—and welcome—you
• Freedom to grow the practice in ways that align with your strengths
• No pressure to replicate someone else's style or book
• A collaborative firm that values autonomy and professionalism
• Technology forward environment that encourages work life balance

What We're Looking For

• 10+ years of civil litigation experience
• Strong client-facing presence and strategic thinking
• California bar admission
• Law-firm background (this is not a fit for attorneys maintaining a separate practice)

The Right Fit

This role is ideal for:

• A senior associate or counsel ready for a bigger seat
• A small-firm litigator looking for infrastructure and growth runway
• A trial-tested attorney seeking long-term stability with upside

All inquiries are handled confidentially.
