Senior Counsel (Landlord/Tenant - Remote)

The posting, as Tyson & Mendes LLP wrote it

Take Your Landlord Tenant Practice Further

Senior Counsel | Landlord Tenant Litigation | Northern California

Please note: An active California Bar license is required.

Landlord tenant litigation requires more than knowing the law. The cases can be fact intensive, highly personal, and increasingly complex. They require attorneys who can see the bigger picture, communicate clearly with clients, and confidently take ownership from the first evaluation through resolution or trial.

Tyson & Mendes is growing our Northern California team , and we are looking for an experienced attorney with a strong background in landlord tenant and habitability litigation who is ready for meaningful responsibility and the opportunity to continue developing as a trial lawyer.

Based out of our Novato office and handling matters throughout Northern California and the greater San Francisco Bay Area , you will join a collaborative group of litigators handling sophisticated civil defense matters with the resources of a national trial firm behind them.

If you know this practice, enjoy the strategy behind complex cases, and want an environment where your experience and initiative are valued, we would love to meet you.

Build on Your Landlord Tenant Experience

Your experience matters here. We are particularly interested in attorneys who have handled matters involving habitability, premises liability, property related disputes, and other landlord tenant claims.

You will have the opportunity to bring that knowledge to a growing practice while continuing to expand the complexity and scope of the matters you handle.

Get Real Trial Exposure

Our Northern California office is a true litigation practice. Several attorneys on the team regularly take cases to trial, creating meaningful opportunities for experienced attorneys who want to strengthen their courtroom experience.

Whether you already have trials behind you or want more opportunities to get there, you will be surrounded by attorneys who actually try cases.

Work With Experienced Litigators

Our Northern California team includes accomplished trial attorneys who are serious about their cases without taking themselves too seriously.

This is a collaborative environment where attorneys share ideas, resources, and experience. Our leaders are busy practicing attorneys, so they are not interested in micromanaging experienced lawyers. They are, however, responsive and available when
