<div class="x_elementToProof"> <p> </p> <h3 class="PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer" data-section-id="8vqanw" data-start="582" data-end="604">Associate Attorney</h3> <p data-start="606" data-end="656"><strong data-start="606" data-end="656">Build Your Nevada Practice With Real Ownership</strong></p> <p data-start="658" data-end="707"><strong data-start="658" data-end="707">Associate Attorney | Nevada | Flexible/Remote</strong></p> <p data-start="709" data-end="763">Please note: An active Nevada Bar license is required.</p> <p data-start="765" data-end="856">There is a difference between assisting on litigation and learning how to truly own a case.</p> <p data-start="858" data-end="1030">Our Nevada team is looking for litigators who want meaningful responsibility, direct client relationships, and the opportunity to become stronger, more confident advocates.</p> <p data-start="1032" data-end="1298">Led by Partner Griffith Hayes, the team handles a broad range of civil defense matters throughout Nevada, including premises liability, bodily injury, auto liability, hospitality and casino matters, dealership-related litigation, and other general liability matters.</p> <p data-start="1300" data-end="1574">Griff believes attorneys grow by being trusted with real responsibility while still having an experienced leader available when they need guidance. He is accessible, invested in professional development, and gives attorneys room to manage their work without micromanagement.</p> <p data-start="1576" data-end="1617"><strong data-start="1576" data-end="1617">What Makes Our Nevada Team Different?</strong></p> <p data-start="1619" data-end="1637"><strong data-start="1619" data-end="1637">Own Your Cases</strong></p> <p data-start="1639" data-end="1911">Our attorneys aren't simply supporting someone else's files. You'll have meaningful responsibility for your matters, develop case strategy, communicate directly with clients and carriers, take depositions, handle motion practice, and prepare cases for resolution or trial.</p> <p data-start="1913" data-end="1946"><strong data-start="1913" data-end="1946">Flexibility Without Isolation</strong></p> <p data-start="1948" data-end="2237">Our Nevada practice operates in a highly flexible environment, and living in Las Vegas is not a requirement. Many appearances can be handled virtually, although attorneys travel when matters require in-person court appearances, trials, site inspections, trial preparation, or client needs.</p> <p data-start="2239" data-end="2270"><strong data-start="2239" data-end="2270">Grow With the Right Support</strong></p> <p data-start="2272" data-end="2497">We believe responsibility and support can coexist. New attorneys are intentionally integrated into the team, with regular communication and access to leadership as they become comfortable with the practice and their caseload.</p> <p data-start="2499" data-end="2538"><strong data-start="2499" data-end="2538">Build the Lawyer You Want to Become</strong></p> <p data-start="2540" data-end="2781">Whether you want greater case ownership, stronger client relationships, more courtroom experience, or opportunities to write, speak, and develop an area you're known for, Tyson & Mendes invests in the individual attorney as well as the firm.</p> <p data-start="2783" data-end="2808"><strong data-start="2783" data-end="2808">Who Will Thrive Here?</strong></p> <p data-start="2810" data-end="2863">You take ownership of your work and communicate well.</p> <p data-start="2865" data-end="2937">You're comfortable working independently but know when to ask questions.</p> <p data-start="2939" data-end="2996">You care about your clients and the quality of your work.</p> <p data-start="2998" data-end="3075">You want meaningful responsibility rather than simply completing assignments.</p> <p data-start="3077" data-end="3290">Insurance defense experience is preferred, but it isn't the only path to our team. We're open to attorneys with strong litigation fundamentals who are interested in building a sophisticated civil defense practice.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Responsibilities</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":257}"> </span></p> <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="2" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"><span data-contrast="auto">Develop compelling case strategies that cut through emotional arguments and drive results</span></li> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="2" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">Set a higher standard—challenge mediocrity and push for excellence in every aspect of your work</li> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="2" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">Independently manage court appearances, depositions, motion practice, and trials</li> <li data-lev
