Job Description
Thrive on precision and high-volume casework? A small yet dynamic UD team needs your sharp legal eye.
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.
