Job description

The Law Office of Parag L. Amin, P.C. (“LawPLA”) is seeking an accomplished senior attorney who wants something increasingly difficult to find in private practice: meaningful ownership of sophisticated matters, direct influence over legal strategy, a voice in how the practice operates, and a genuine opportunity to grow in leadership, responsibility, and compensation as the Firm evolves.

Our practice includes complex business litigation, commercial disputes, and employment defense matters that demand more than technical proficiency or task execution. We value attorneys who understand the whole case: identifying issues early, developing strategy with the end in mind, anticipating risks, communicating intelligently with clients, building the evidentiary record deliberately, and moving matters toward resolution or trial with purpose.

We are looking for an attorney who understands that building a successful legal practice requires exceptional legal judgment, disciplined execution, sound business decisions, and the ability to bring out the best in other professionals. We are particularly interested in candidates who have demonstrated leadership through mentoring other attorneys, managing litigation teams, overseeing complex caseloads, improving legal work production, or establishing the professional standards and accountability necessary for a successful practice.

The right candidate will have substantial experience managing complex litigation independently, together with the professional maturity and business acumen to recognize that excellent legal work is only one dimension of an effective practice. Responsibilities will include substantive litigation strategy, motion practice, discovery, depositions, client counseling, negotiations, mediations, and trial preparation and advocacy, with opportunities to contribute to the leadership, development, and operational effectiveness of the legal team.

This opportunity is particularly well suited to an attorney who understands the relationship between legal excellence, organizational leadership, and business performance—and wants to make a meaningful contribution to all three.

We also care about what you are building professionally. LawPLA has been recognized by the Los Angeles Times as a Top Workplace in Southern California, and we are committed to creating an environment where accomplished attorneys can exercise judgment, contribute ideas, influence decisions, and continue developing professionally without disappearing into an unnecessary hierarchy. As the Firm grows, so does the opportunity for the right individual to assume greater responsibility, influence its direction, and help shape the practice they want to lead.

Benefits

• Benefits include health coverage as well as a vacation and paid time off policy to support work-life balance after the probationary period of 90 days is completed

• Production bonuses tied to billable-hours performance and matter throughput, with top performers having the opportunity to push past $200,000 in total compensation
