Job description

Plaintiff-Side | Fully Remote Anywhere in the U.S. | California Bar Required | $150,000–$250,000/year

No billable-hour targets. No origination requirements. Full ownership of meaningful California employment cases with real litigation support. Plaintiff-side experience is preferred but not required. Experienced defense-side employment litigators interested in moving to plaintiff-side practice are encouraged to apply.

WHY LABOR LAW PC

Labor Law PC is a California plaintiff-side employment litigation firm founded in 2018. We built the firm around a simple idea: attorneys should be able to do serious, high-quality litigation without billable-hour pressure, business-development requirements, or unnecessary bureaucracy.

We are fully remote, have approximately 45 team members, and have built the operational and litigation support infrastructure attorneys need to focus on practicing law.

We are selective about the cases we take and are looking for an experienced attorney who wants meaningful ownership of their work.

THE ROLE

You will independently manage a caseload of California employment matters, including discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination, wage-and-hour claims, and select class actions.

You will own your cases from filing through resolution while working with dedicated law clerks, a litigation coordinator, and firm-wide operational support.

You will:

• Take and defend depositions
• Draft and argue motions
• Prepare settlement demands and negotiate resolutions
• Communicate directly with clients
• Manage deadlines and case progression
• Collaborate with firm leadership on significant litigation strategy

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

We hire for judgment, ownership, accountability, and quality of work. You should have:

• 5+ years of California employment litigation experience
• Ability to independently manage cases from filing through resolution
• Strong legal writing and motion practice
• Ability to identify problems early and take ownership of solutions

WHAT WE OFFER

• Fully Remote: Live anywhere in the United States
• No Billables: Your compensation is not tied to hours billed
• No Origination Requirement: You do not need to bring in business
• Real Support: Dedicated law clerks, litigation coordination, and firm systems
• Case Ownership: Meaningful autonomy over strategy and case progression
• Retirement Benefits: 401(k), employer contributions, and retirement plan

OUR VALUES

We operate under four core values: Family, Accountable, Centered, and Thoughtful. They guide how we work together, how we communicate, how we handle problems, and who we hire.

COMPENSATION

$150,000–$250,000 per year, depending on directly relevant experience, litigation background, case-management ability, deposition and motion practice, and other qualifications.

If you want to practice serious plaintiff-side employment litigation with substantial autonomy and strong infrastructure behind you, we would like to hear from you.
