About the role
City of Merced seeks an entry-level Deputy City Attorney to perform professional legal work and conduct research under supervision. You will represent the City on legal matters and assist in drafting documents and preparing for trial.
Ideal candidates have a law degree from an ABA/CA-accredited school, active CA State Bar membership, and willingness to work irregular hours when needed. Driver license and strong ethics are required.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
