Associate Attorney - General Liability (Remote)

Segal McCambridge, a nationally recognized litigation firm, is seeking an Associate Attorney to join our General Liability Practice Group in our San Francisco office. This is a unique opportunity to gain meaningful litigation experience on high-stakes cases while working alongside nationally recognized trial attorneys.

This role offers a rare combination of meaningful responsibility, high-quality mentorship, and flexibility. You will be part of a collaborative team handling sophisticated, high-stakes litigation for national and Fortune 500 clients.

The Opportunity

At Segal McCambridge, associates are not siloed or relegated to support roles.  As a key member of our team, you'll work on a wide variety of complex civil defense matters, including:

• Catastrophic injury
• Product liability
• Wrongful death
• Premises and habitability claims
• Warranty and other high-exposure litigation

From day one, you'll receive hands-on experience: drafting pleadings, arguing motions, conducting depositions, managing discovery, and appearing in court. You'll be mentored by experienced partners and given room to grow in a supportive, high-performance environment.

This is an excellent opportunity for attorneys who want to sharpen their litigation skills, take ownership of their work, and build a long-term career within a growing national firm.

What We're Looking For

• Active license to practice law in California
• At least 3 years of experience in civil defense litigation
• Strong skills in legal research, writing, and oral advocacy
• Experience drafting pleadings, handling discovery, and managing motion practice
• Excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple deadlines
• Team-oriented mindset with a proactive, ownership-driven approach

Compensation & Growth

Segal McCambridge offers competitive compensation, bonus opportunities, and credit for business origination. Associates benefit from clear paths for advancement and the chance to grow within a firm that values initiative, collaboration, and high-quality work.

Benefits

• 401(k) with employer match
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Health savings and flexible spending accounts
• Paid time off and parental leave
• Life insurance and employee assistance program
• Professional development assistance
• Referral and employee discount programs
