Position : Junior Associate Litigation Attorney

Experience : 0 to 3 years

Pay: $110K-$130K Depending on experience

Company Overview: The Law Offices of Daniel A. Hunt is a fun and fast-growing law firm specializing in Estate Planning, Trust Administration, Probate, and Litigation. People are our number one priority. We value our clients and employees above all else. We are in search of a junior associate litigation attorney to join our litigation team at our Sacramento location. We are only looking for team members who care first and foremost about people, are kind, accountable, and driven. They must be organized, emotionally intelligent, work well independently and as a team, and work well under pressure.

Position:

This position is an entry level associate attorney position. The candidate will be part of a litigation team that handles contested probate matters, contested conservatorships, trust litigation, financial elder abuse, real estate litigation, and landlord-tenant disputes. The position involves significant discovery, law and motion practice, alternative dispute resolution, appearing at hearings, and the opportunity to second chair both bench and jury trials. The ideal candidate is a licensed attorney looking to develop their skills as a litigator and has a desire to grow as an attorney. The candidate will work directly under a senior litigation attorney and will be part of a fast-paced team. As such, this is a collaborative position. Adhering to the firm’s values of kindness, accountability, hungry and smart are imperative.

The candidate must have strong legal research and writing skills, strong oral advocacy skills, and be extremely comfortable working with various technology platforms and programs such as Microsoft Office and Outlook. Familiarity with Clio Manage and other knowledge-based software is a plus. As this is an entry level position, no experience is required but familiarity in trust and estate litigation and general California Civil Procedure is a plus but not required. The individual we are seeking is someone that will commit to, and invest in, the success of the firm. Applicants must be an active member of the California State Bar.

Responsibilities:

  • Perform legal research
  • Draft motions and ex parte applications
  • Draft written discovery

  • Attend mediation
  • Prepare cases for trial

  • Bill for all time to meet (or exceed) the billable hour requirement procedure

Qualifications:

· Kind : We are looking for someone who practices kindness in all their dealings. If you do not lead with kindness, please do not apply.

· Accountable : We know and respect that people make mistakes. We respect you even more if you own up to those mistakes and learn from them. We are a goal-oriented firm and strive to better each other through setting goals and holding each other accountable.

· Smart : We value common sense. We are seeking someone who works smart and knows how to deal effectively with others and has problem solving abilities.

· Hungry: We are looking for team members who are self-motivated, always striving to do more, interested in learning new things and is a team player.
