Associate Attorney

If you are a civil litigator who wants to actually practice law , take ownership of your cases, and get into the courtroom, this may be the opportunity you're looking for.

SNS Law Group, Inc. is a growing Southern California law firm representing landlords, property managers, real estate investors, and property owners in real estate and civil litigation. Our attorneys handle matters ranging from lease disputes and landlord-side litigation to breach of contract, purchase and sale disputes, quiet title, partition, and other real property claims.

We have a busy docket and real courtroom work. This is not a document-review position. From the beginning, you will have meaningful responsibility for active cases, opportunities to appear in court, direct client interaction, and hands-on involvement in litigation strategy.

What You'll Do

• Take ownership of an active caseload from intake through resolution and trial.
• Develop case strategy and handle pleadings, discovery, law and motion, and settlement negotiations.
• Litigate real estate and civil disputes involving contracts, leases, fraud, quiet title, partition, easements, and other real property claims.
• Appear at case management conferences, ex parte hearings, mandatory settlement conferences, and bench and jury trials.
• Communicate directly with clients and opposing counsel.
• Work closely with paralegals and case managers to keep matters moving and meet demanding court and statutory deadlines.
• Build your litigation skills through hands-on experience rather than sitting on the sidelines.

What We're Looking For

• J.D. and active membership in good standing with the State Bar of California.
• Approximately 2 to 5 years of civil litigation experience.
• Real estate litigation experience is strongly preferred, but we are open to strong civil litigators who want to develop a real estate practice.
• Strong legal research, writing, and oral advocacy skills.
• The ability to manage deadlines, prioritize a substantial caseload, and take ownership of your work.
• Someone who is comfortable in a fast-paced environment and genuinely wants to be in the courtroom.

Why SNS Law Group?

Real responsibility. You'll work on active litigation matters and have meaningful ownership of your cases.

Courtroom experience. You'll have opportunities to appear in court and develop your advocacy skills.

Direct mentorship. You'll work closely with the firm's managing attorney and have access to hands-on guidance rather than being one of many associates in a large department.

Room to grow. As our firm continues to expand, there is a clear opportunity to take on increasing responsibility and build your practice.

Competitive compensation. $120,000 to $160,000 annually, depending on experience, plus performance-based incentives and paid time off.
