Job description

Why This Role Powers Your Legal Career
We represent property owners, investors, HOAs, and landlords—never tenants—in a fast-moving, compartmentalized UD department with up to 1,000 active wrongful detainer matters. Our culture is "work hard, but don't take yourself too seriously." Casual dress, friendly banter, high expectations. It's laid-back in vibe, tenacious in delivery.
Attention to detail is non-negotiable—a misstep can cost clients dearly. You'll oversee paralegals and associates, reviewing complaints, motions, filings, discovery, and law and motion preparation for compliance with California and Los Angeles eviction rules.
What You'll Do
Lead quality control across the UD practice—review pleadings, motions, discovery, filings
Ensure strict adherence to California and Los Angeles eviction procedures
Mentor associates and paralegals and uphold high legal standards

Collaborate across litigation and property management departments for seamless caseflow
What We Are Looking For
Strong candidate qualities:
Sharp editorial focus and uncompromising attention to detail
Self-starter attitude, proactive problem-solving, thrives under volume
Enjoys team-oriented, friendly environment—no drama, just mutual respect
Poor candidate fit:
Struggles to focus or allows outside distractions to affect performance
Requirements:
7+ years of UD, landlord-tenant, or real estate litigation experience in California
California Bar admission
Proven legal writing and document review skills
Motion for Summary Judgment writing sample preferred (please submit at least two writing samples upon request)
Work Environment
100% in-office preferred
100% remote may be considered for candidates with substantial experience and proven reliability
One comprehensive in-person interview preferred
Target of 1,850 billable hours annually
Standard business hours with occasional nights or weekends based on workload
Compensation and Benefits
Salary Range: $150,000 to $200,000+, depending on experience
Discretionary Bonus Potential
Benefits:
75% employer-paid health, dental, and vision insurance from day one
Unlimited PTO (with managing partner approval)
Seven federal holidays plus other holidays
401(k) plan eligible from day one (no match)
