About the role

City and County of Denver invites applications for an Associate Assistant City Attorney in the Civil Litigation Section. The role involves providing legal counsel to City officials and defending civil suits in trial and appellate courts, with a focus on tort, civil rights, and constitutional claims against City agencies and employees. The position requires a JD or LL.B., Colorado bar admission by hire date, and at least two years of attorney-at-law experience.

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.
