Senior Counsel (Landlord/Tenant)
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections that have real content. The posting includes responsibilities, requirements, compensation package (pay), benefits, maybe about the role (intro). Also maybe "Qualifications" could be same as requirements? We'll map.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Click here to learn more about the Tyson & Mendes Office! (944) The Tyson & Mendes Office - YouTube" etc. Also remove "Equal Opportunity Employer Notice" and legal copy. Also remove "NOTICE TO APPLICANTS/EMPLOYEES..." etc. Also remove "No recruiters/agencies". Also remove "Pay Range: $160,000 USD - $190,000 USD" duplicate.
We need to preserve all substantive information: responsibilities list, requirements list, compensation details, benefits list, about the role (intro paragraphs). Also maybe "Skills" could be derived from requirements (proficiency in MS Suite etc). But we can put under Requirements or Skills separate if content exists. The posting includes "Ability to think and act independently..." etc. That's more skills. We could create a Skills section.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". The compensation is specific: base salary range $160k-$190k, bonus details, benefits coverage, 401k match, student loan assistance, parental leave, tech reimbursement. So we can have Pay section with salary and bonus, Benefits section with benefits list.
Schedule: not mentioned, so omit.
We need to use for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown.
Let's extract content.
Intro/about the role: first paragraphs up to "Bring Your Experience. Keep Building." Actually there is a lot of descriptive text. We'll summarize as prose but must preserve all substantive information, not summarize away detail. That means we need to keep the details, not just summarize. However we can keep the paragraphs as is, but we need to ensure we don't omit any substantive info. We can copy the paragraphs verbatim (excluding boilerplate). That is a lot but okay.
We need to remove duplicated lines, navigation, etc. Let's copy the main descriptive text before RESPONSIBILITIES.
From the posting:
"Bring Your Landlord Tenant Experience. Build What Comes Next. Senior Counsel | Landlord Tenant, Habitability and General Liability | Los Angeles An active California Bar license is required. California habitability litigation is evolving quickly, creating an opportunity for attorneys with experience in this space to build an increasingly valuable area of expertise. Tyson & Mendes is growing our Los Angeles practice, and Partner Julee Fritsch Earley is looking for an experienced litigator to join her team. The practice is currently focused heavily on landlord tenant and habitability litigation, along with general liability and personal injury matters. This is an opportunity to bring the experience you have already developed to a growing practice, take meaningful ownership of cases, and work with a partner who genuinely enjoys mentoring attorneys. Build Expertise in a Growing Practice Habitability is an important and developing area of California litigation, and we are actively growing our capabilities in this space. You will handle matters involving habitability claims, landlord tenant disputes, premises related issues, general negligence, personal injury, and other civil litigation. Landlord tenant or habitability experience is particularly valuable, but your background does not have to come from the defense side. Plaintiff attorneys are encouraged to apply. Julee began her own career representing plaintiffs and understands the perspective and litigation skills plaintiff attorneys can bring to a defense practice. Attorneys coming from plaintiff habitability, real estate litigation, personal injury, elder abuse, nursing home litigation, or other substantive civil practices may be a strong fit. Work With a Partner Who Actually Wants to Mentor Julee is an experienced trial attorney who has litigated matters involving catastrophic personal injury, general negligence, trucking, products liability, employment, and healthcare in both state and federal court. She is also happiest when she is mentoring and developing attorneys. Her leadership style balances independence with support. She wants her attorneys thinking proactively and taking ownership, while keeping her connected so she can provide feedback, help with strategy, and step in when her experience can add value. The team meets weekly to discuss cases and strategy, and Julee also spends individual time with her attorneys for deeper case discussions. You will have room to practice independently without having to figure everything out alone. Keep Building as a Litigator Senior Counsel can arrive with very different experiences, and we recognize that years in practice do not always tell the entire story. You may already have significant deposition and trial experience. Or you may have spent years handling substantive civil litigation without being given enough opportunities to get into the courtroom. We are interested in the skills and judgment you bring and where you want to go next. For the right attorney, there is an opportunity to develop into a strong second chair, expand trial experience, and take on greater responsibility as the team grows. See a Real Path Forward Julee understands what it feels like to wonder whether there is actually room to advance. After spending 10 years at another firm without the pathway she wanted, she joined Tyson & Mendes as Senior Counsel and advanced to Partner. Today, she is intentional about developing attorneys and encouraging leadership. Tyson & Mendes is transparent about advancement and believes strong performance, initiative, judgment, client service, and leadership should create opportunities for attorneys who want to continue growing. Modern Tools for Modern Litigation Our attorneys have access to Tyson & Mendes' APEX methodology, Trial Academy, and nationally recognized approach to Stopping Nuclear Verdicts®, along with modern case management systems, advanced research resources, and AI enabled legal technology. These tools are designed to support great lawyering, not replace it, giving attorneys additional ways to work strategically and efficiently while focusing their time on the parts of the practice where their judgment matters most. Who Will Thrive Here? We are looking for an experienced California litigator who is proactive, forward thinking, responsive, and energized by the practice of law. Experience in landlord tenant litigation, habitability, real estate litigation, premises liability, general liability, personal injury, or related civil litigation is particularly valuable. Insurance defense experience is helpful, including familiarity with carrier relationships and billing requirements, but it is not required. We want attorneys who bring ideas to the table, think about what should happen next, communicate proactively, and enjoy being part of a team that takes the work seriously. Flexibility With Real Connection Julee leads her team remotely and understands the realities of practicing across the Los Angeles region. The team stays connected through weekly meetings, individual case strategy discussions, regular communication, and close coordination with support staff. We care less about where you sit every day and more about responsiveness, communication, excellent work, and staying connected to your team and cases. Bring Your Experience. Keep Building. If you have developed valuable experience in habitability, landlord tenant, plaintiff, or civil litigation, you do not need to start over to build something new. Bring that perspective with you. Come work on sophisticated matters, learn from an experienced partner who loves developing attorneys, expand your trial skills, and build toward the next stage of your career. Join Julee Earley and the Tyson & Mendes Los Angeles team and help us continue building our California habitability and civil defense practice."

Also there is "About Tyson & Mendes" section but that seems boilerplate/nav. We can omit as it's more about firm description but could be considered substantive? It includes info about firm being fastest-growing civil defense firm, landmark cases, etc. Might be considered substantive but it's more like marketing. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions.

The "About Tyson & Mendes" might be considered extra but could be kept as part of About the role? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could incorporate that into About the role or omit. Since we already have a lot of descriptive content, we could omit the separate About Tyson & Mendes to avoid thin section. We'll omit.
