Build Your Litigation Career with a Team That Invests in You

Associate Attorney | Insurance Defense | Fresno, California

An active California Bar license is required.

Meaningful litigation experience. Hands-on mentorship. Flexibility that works. A team that has your back.

At Tyson & Mendes, we believe a great legal career is built on more than the cases you handle. It's about the people who support you, the opportunities you're given, and the confidence you develop along the way.

We're looking for a motivated Associate Attorney to join our Fresno litigation team, led by Partner Alexandra Noyes , an experienced trial attorney who believes in developing talent, sharing knowledge, and creating an environment where attorneys can do their best work.

If you're looking for a place where you can take ownership of your cases, continue developing your litigation skills, and work alongside a leader who genuinely enjoys mentoring attorneys, we'd love to meet you.

Why Join Our Fresno Team?

A Partner Who Invests in Your Success

Alexandra Noyes brings extensive experience in complex civil litigation, including premises liability, personal injury, products liability, agricultural disputes, and appellate matters.

Just as importantly, she enjoys teaching.

Whether it's working through a challenging motion, preparing for a deposition, reviewing legal research, or developing litigation strategy, Alexandra takes a hands-on approach to mentorship. She believes in providing guidance, constructive feedback, and the opportunity to learn by doing.

You'll have a leader who is approachable, invested in your development, and willing to roll up her sleeves to help you succeed.

Interesting Cases. Real Responsibility.

No two days are exactly alike on this team.

Our Fresno practice handles a diverse mix of litigation, including:

Agricultural and agribusiness disputes

Premises liability and personal injury defense

Products liability

Automobile liability

Landlord-tenant and habitability matters

Complex civil litigation and dispositive motion practice

You'll have opportunities to develop your skills through discovery, depositions, motion practice, court appearances, expert investigations, and case management.

Whether you're building your litigation foundation or ready to take greater ownership of your cases, you'll have opportunities to grow.

Flexibility Without Losing Connection

We recognize that attorneys do their best work in different environments.

Our Fresno team offers flexible work arrangements, including remote and hybrid opportunities depending on the position, experience, and needs of the practice.

What makes this team special is that flexibility doesn't mean working in isolation.

Through regular communication, collaborative case discussions, and accessible leadership, the team stays connected and supported regardless of where they're working.
