Lit. in LA

Anyone know of any firms in LA hiring jr. lit. associates? I'm coming off a clerkship in a competitive district (SDNY, CD Cal, EDNY, ND Cal) and not thrilled about returning to the firm I summered at.

E.g., Milbank LA, JD LA, and any lit-heavy firms. I would imagine a competitive clerkship would give you the pick of the litter, no? Is the market that bad?

OP. I've sent out a lot of emails showing interest, and its either radio silence, or the firm is looking for clerkship + 1-3 years of firm experience. The hiring boom is seems largely focused on transactional roles, IME.

Is there any consensus on top lit firms in LA?
