Land Use/Environmental Litigation Sr. Associate or Of Counsel (8+ years)

Meyers Nave is looking for an ambitious senior associate or of counsel with eight or more years of experience for our fast-moving, in-demand Land Use and Environmental Practice Group to work in a collaborative team environment.  Candidates should look forward to – and, in fact, thrive on – the challenge of wrestling with cutting-edge legal issues, independently handling matters and cases and arguing and appearing in court.  Candidates must have substantive land use/environmental litigation experience, and transactional experience is a benefit.  Prior experience with CEQA and NEPA as an attorney is required.  This position is open to our Oakland, Los Angeles, San Diego and Sacramento offices.  Candidates should demonstrate strong work ethic and dedication to the practice of law as well as outstanding writing and analytic abilities.

The salary range for this California-based role is $180,000 – $260,000, and represents the firm’s good faith and reasonable estimate of the range of possible compensation at the time of posting.  Actual compensation will depend upon a number of factors, including but not limited to, the candidate’s years of experience, qualifications, skill set and office location.  Meyers Nave offers a reasonable billable hours requirement, annual discretionary and billable hours bonuses, competitive health insurance benefits, 401(k) with a partial match and profit-sharing.
