Build Your Litigation Career With a Partner Invested in Your Growth
Associate Attorney | Sacramento, California
Please note: An active California Bar license is required.
The attorney you work for early in your career can have an enormous impact on the lawyer you become.
Tyson & Mendes is growing our Sacramento office, and Partner Bill Jenkins is looking for an Associate Attorney to join his expanding litigation team.
With more than 30 years of experience, Bill brings a wealth of litigation knowledge and a leadership style that is patient, approachable, and even tempered. He believes in giving attorneys the opportunity to learn, ask questions, develop their judgment, and take on greater responsibility as they grow.
For an associate who wants meaningful litigation experience and the chance to learn directly from a seasoned attorney who is invested in building both his team and the lawyers on it, this is an exciting opportunity.
Why Join Bill’s Team?
Learn From More Than 30 Years of Experience
Bill is an AV rated attorney with more than three decades of litigation experience. His practice includes construction defect, premises liability, habitability, and professional liability, giving associates exposure to a varied and substantive civil defense practice.
You will have the opportunity to learn not only how to complete an assignment, but how an experienced litigator thinks about the entire case.
Mentorship Without Intimidation
Learning requires an environment where you feel comfortable asking questions.
Bill is known for being patient, steady, and even tempered. He understands that developing attorneys need guidance, feedback, and opportunities to work through challenging issues.
The goal is not to have you dependent on a partner forever. It is to help you build the skills and confidence to become increasingly independent as your experience grows.
Do Meaningful Litigation Work
This is an opportunity to build practical skills that will serve you throughout your career.
You will gain experience with discovery, legal research and writing, substantive motion practice, depositions, client communication, case strategy, mediation, expert work, and trial preparation.
As you demonstrate your capabilities, you will have opportunities to take greater ownership of your matters and continue expanding your litigation experience.
