Lewis & Llewellyn is once again looking to bolster our ranks!

We are looking for an experienced associate to dive deeply into our complex and interesting portfolio of matters and take their practice to the next level.  As always, we are looking for attorneys with top-flight credentials coupled with the passion to litigate.  The ideal candidate would have impeccable educational credentials, two to four years’ experience at an AmLaw 100 firm and be ready to develop an exciting practice in both state court, federal court, and arbitration.

Lewis & Llewellyn deeply values diversity and we specifically encourage applications from diverse candidates.  If you are interested in joining a team of world class attorneys, practicing at the cutting edge of litigation, and who love what they do, send your resume to careers@lewisllewellyn.com.

Last month, the Lewis & Llewellyn team and our families gathered in the East Bay to celebrate the final weeks of summer.  We always enjoy the opportunity to get together outside of the office, and it’s made even better when we are joined by our children, partners, and parents.

It’s been a busy summer for the Lewis & Llewellyn team!  Last month we spent an afternoon sailing on the Bay, taking in the stunning views of San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge.

Last month, Lewis & Llewellyn Partner Evangeline A.Z. Burbidge was a featured speaker at Pincus Professional Education’s Master the Depositions 101: The Nuts and Bolts California program.  Evan co-presented with plaintiff’s lawyer heavyweight Paul Triana of Panish Shea Ravipudi on how to handle difficult opposing counsel and difficult witnesses.

A California federal judge has revived a previously dismissed lawsuit filed by our client, Top Agent Network, against the National Association of Realtors (NAR).  The lawsuit challenges the NAR’s “clear cooperation” policy, which requires agents to list properties on a multiple listing service (MLS) within a day of marketing them elsewhere.  The revival follows a successful appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.   The lawsuit, led by Lewis & Llewellyn attorneys Tobias Snyder and Paul Llewellyn, was recently named by Law360 as one of the country’s four real estate cases to watch in 2024.  A copy of the article can be read here.
