**HireNow Staffing is partnering with a respected, multi-service law firm in the Bay Area to identify a**seasoned and skilled Real Estate Litigation Associate**.

**Attorneys with**purely transactional** or**in-house-only** backgrounds**:

- **Commercial litigators without property, landlord-tenant, or construction-related experience**:

- **401(k) plan**:

- **Student loan repayment benefit**:

- **Paid parental leave**:

- **Teleworking opportunities**:
