A partner-level appointment in this practice turns on what actually moves with you, far more than on any headline figure.

A leading US law firm is seeking a lateral partner to join its commercial litigation practice in Los Angeles. The role offers a platform to lead complex business disputes on behalf of sophisticated clients.

The successful candidate will handle a broad range of commercial litigation matters, including contract, business tort, and related disputes, with substantial autonomy and a direct role in client relationships. The position is based in Los Angeles and is not a multi-office posting.

This is an opportunity to build and grow a litigation practice within a well-established firm environment, collaborating with colleagues across complementary practices.

Established partner-level commercial litigation practice
Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
Proven ability to lead and manage complex commercial disputes
Admitted to practice in California (or ability to become admitted)

If the fit is not obvious on paper, a conversation is still worth having — these mandates flex around the right practice.
