About This RoleAI processing…

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.

Lyft is looking for a bright, energetic, and self-motivated attorney with at least 5 years of litigation experience to join our expanding Legal Team. The successful candidate will be pragmatic, entrepreneurial and comfortable working in an ambiguous, quickly-changing, and sometimes chaotic environment, with a high workload. You will actively oversee litigation, and also partner with and provide legal guidance to departments such as Claims, Risk, Safety, Policy, and Communications to help craft solutions to the novel legal challenges Lyft faces every day.

Key Responsibilities

  • 1
    Primary responsibility — meaning, hands-on work, not just supervising outside counsel — for legal matters, with an emphasis on personal injury cases.
  • 2
    Collaborate closely with fellow Legal Team members to develop and implement litigation strategy with an eye toward impact on Lyft’s broader business objectives.
  • 3
    Proactively approach all aspects of litigation, including discovery, motion practice, witness preparation, and trial and appellate strategies.
  • 4
    Analyze litigation matters to effectively participate in decisions related to resolution strategy and demonstrate an ability to understand, interpret, and apply current law and regulations to Lyft’s current and prospective products and services.
  • 5
    Efficient management of outside counsel, including tactical guidance, staffing, case management, budgeting, and alignment with Lyft’s broader legal strategy.
  • 6
    Provide guidance to management on litigation matters.
  • 7
    Provide sound legal advice cross-functionally to other teams.
  • 8
    Maintain effective communication with insurance carriers and other third parties.

Requirements

  • Salary ranges are dependent on a variety of factors, including qualifications, experience and geographic location.
