Senior Trial Attorney - First Chair Litigator
Go-Staff, Inc. Skilled Trades, Los Angeles, CA, United States
Job Description
Job Description
This Role Is Not for a "Litigator."
It's for a Trial Lawyer.
If you are a battle-tested civil litigator who actually tries cases — not just manages files — this is the platform to elevate your impact and income.
A highly respected boutique civil litigation firm is seeking a Senior Associate Trial Attorney ready to take ownership of complex cases and drive them from strategy through verdict. You'll have autonomy, courtroom presence, and the opportunity to lead — not just support — high-stakes litigation.
We are looking for someone who is comfortable being first chair, who commands a courtroom, and who understands that preparation wins trials.
What You'll Control
* Case strategy from day one through trial
* Depositions, dispositive motions, and trial preparation
* Jury trials (first-chair experience strongly preferred)
* Mediation and high-level settlement negotiations
* Direct client advisory on risk and litigation positioning
This is not a volume mill. This is strategic litigation.
What We Expect
* 10-15 years of civil litigation experience
* Strong background in insurance defense, personal injury, and/or business litigation
* Demonstrated trial experience — not just second-chair support
* Sharp legal writing and persuasive advocacy skills
* Confidence managing complex matters independently
* Active California Bar membership in good standing
If you're comfortable in the courtroom and confident in your results, we want to talk.
Compensation That Reflects Experience
* $160,000 - $240,000 base (DOE)
* Quarterly performance-based bonuses
* Full benefits package (medical, dental, 401(k), etc.)
* Paid time off
* Long-term growth opportunity within a respected litigation practice
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
* Real trials. Real autonomy.
* Boutique environment without bureaucratic red tape.
* Collaborative culture of experienced litigators.
* Leadership that values skill, preparation, and results.
If you're currently under-leveraged, under-compensated, or simply ready for a more serious litigation platform — this is your move.
Confidential inquiries welcome. Direct applicants only.
