Company: Hanson Bridgett LLP
Position: Trust & Estates Litigation Associate (3-5 years of experience)
Location: San Francisco, Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Rafael and Walnut Creek (hybrid)
Description: We are seeking a trust and estate litigation associate with at least 3 years in civil litigation experience to join our trust and estate litigation team, known as the Family Wealth Resolution & Disputes Practice Group. The associate will handle litigation matters related to trusts and estates, including drafting legal documents, participating in dispute resolution processes, and providing legal counsel to clients. Prior experience working with trust and probate litigation is preferred, but not required. This is a fantastic chance to explore a growing and intriguing field of litigation, become a subject matter expert, and work in a supportive and friendly atmosphere.
At Hanson Bridgett, you’ll have close relationships with your peers, partners and clients—getting exposure to contested hearings, evidentiary hearings, mediations and depositions early and taking on challenging cases together. With a values-driven culture that measures its impact, you can be confident your influence will go beyond what’s on paper and directly change the private clients you serve. This is a hybrid position based out of San Francisco, Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Rafael or Walnut Creek. The annual base compensation for this California position is approximately $190,000 to $200,000. Placement within the salary range depends up a number of factors including, but not limited to years of experience and professional skills required for the role.
