Associate – Eminent Domain – 3 TO 7 Years OF Experience

*** Non Recruiters Job ***   Meyers Nave is a robust midsize law firm with five offices throughout California. For over 35 years, we have built a reputation as a “go to” law firm to handle high profile and high stakes matters for both public entities and private sector clients. Our Trial Litigation Practice Group is a robust litigation practice that focuses on high-impact, complex litigation in state and federal courts—often on behalf of governmental agencies. We are the “go-to” firm for transportation agencies, counties, cities, and other public entities in planning and implementing large public infrastructure projects. This includes (among others) assisting public entities with complex real estate and property acquisition needs, including eminent domain. ABOUT THE POSITION We are currently looking for a bright, committed, and ambitious attorney with three to seven years of experience and a demonstrated focus or interest in real estate and eminent domain litigation. This position is open in our San Diego, Los Angeles, or Oakland office. Qualified candidates must have excellent academic credentials, outstanding analytical and creative thinking capabilities, superior research and writing skills, and a strong work ethic. In addition, a successful candidate will have a proven ability to work in teams and an interest in elevating the Meyers Nave brand and reputation. Experience in eminent domain, real estate, or public entity land acquisition litigation is required. It is essential that candidates possess substantive experience with law and motion practice, including dispositive motions. Candidates should also have prior experience in building a case for trial, including developing evidence, interviewing witnesses, and taking and defending depositions. This position affords an opportunity for a motivated and qualified attorney to gain significant litigation and trial experience on a wide array of real estate, eminent domain, and public entity-related land acquisition matters throughout California. We offer a hybrid work schedule with continued work-from-home opportunities, coupled with core “in-office” days working with colleagues to promote collaboration and collegiality. The salary range for this California-based role is $185,000–$245,000 and represents the firm’s good faith and reasonable estimate of the range of possible compensation at the time of posting. Actual compensation will depend upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the candidate’s years of experience, qualifications, skill set, and office location. Meyers Nave offers a reasonable billable hours requirement, annual discretionary and billable hours bonuses, competitive health insurance benefits, 401(k) with a partial match, and profit-sharing.
