COMMERCIAL LITIGATION ASSOCIATE

Cairncross & Hempelmann (“CH&”) is a full-service law firm in Seattle that advises our diverse client base in business, land use, real estate, litigation, and bankruptcy and creditors’ rights.  Our hallmark culture hinges upon respect, collegiality, and genuine care which extends to all CH& employees, as well as to our clients and their teams. 

We are seeking a Commercial Litigation Associate to join our dynamic litigation group.  Our key areas of focus are real estate litigation, business disputes and complex contracts, construction litigation, design professional liability claims, and policy holders’ insurance coverage in state and federal court.  The ideal candidate will have 1– 3 years of general commercial litigation experience.
