Business Litigation Attorney

,California law firm, Dracup & Patterson, is looking for a Contract Business Litigation Attorney with a minimum of 10 years of experience in business litigation to start immediately - drafting complaints, motions, discovery, responding to discovery, and working with clients directly.

All work can be done from your location unless you have a court appearance where you determine your chance of success is increased by a personal appearance (or the motion is high value or critical to the case). You must be willing to work directly with clients. It is critical that you respond rapidly to client inquiries and communicate well with clients assigned to you.
