There are easier ways to bill 1,900 hours.
But not many where one file involves a defective machine, the next a medical device and the next something that probably required several meetings before somebody decided, “yes, let’s sell that.”
That’s product liability.
I’m working with a large national litigation firm looking to add a Product Liability Attorney to its California team. Interesting cases, serious clients and the chance to become a genuinely good litigator along the way.
Salary: $120,000 to $175,000, depending on experience
Why this firm:
- National platform with an established product liability practice
- Interesting cases involving sophisticated products and significant claims
- Strong trial culture with experienced litigators around you
- Opportunity to take meaningful ownership of cases as your experience develops
- Genuine long term progression within a substantial California practice
What you'll be doing:
- Defend manufacturers and other businesses in product liability litigation
- Take and defend depositions and handle substantive motion practice
- Work closely with experts and develop case strategy
- Attend hearings, mediations and prepare cases for trial
What you'll have:
- 2 to 6 years of civil litigation experience, ideally including product liability or insurance defense
- Experience handling discovery, depositions and substantive motions
- Strong writing skills and the confidence to take ownership of matters
- Admitted to The California Bar
Next Steps:
Here’s the bit worth remembering: you don’t need to be actively looking to have a conversation.
Maybe there’s something better out there for you. Maybe there isn’t. Worst case, we have a confidential chat and you decide staying put is the right move. That’s a perfectly good outcome too.
If you’d rather talk than apply, call me on 646 540 9647. I know court appearances, depositions and the small matter of actually billing your hours don’t always leave much room in your day. So I’m around early mornings (from 6am PST time) and at weekends too.
And if speaking to a recruiter isn’t normally high on your list of enjoyable activities, I understand. There are over 100 recommendations on my LinkedIn profile if you want to vet me first. I’m Arran Jaiswal At Distinct North America.
