  • Develop and maintain relationships with clients, opposing counsel, mediators, and experts; lead settlement discussions and mediation sessions.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams on case budgeting, staffing, and resource allocation to meet client and firm objectives.
  • Represent clients in court hearings, trials, and appellate matters; present oral argument and examine witnesses effectively.

Qualifications

  • Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school and admission to practice in California.
  • Minimum of 5+ years of litigation experience, with substantial emphasis on labor & employment law and wage & hour matters.
  • Demonstrated experience handling Employment Class Action lawsuits, including PAGA matters.
  • Proven trial and courtroom experience with a track record of favorable outcomes in complex employment litigation.
  • Deep substantive knowledge of wage & hour law, employment statutes, and labor law principles (L&E), including hands-on experience with wages, overtime, meal and rest break rules, and misclassification claims.
  • Strong legal research, writing, and oral advocacy skills; experience drafting dispositive motions and appellate briefs.
  • Experience supervising and mentoring junior attorneys and support staff, and managing large litigation teams.
  • Excellent client-facing skills, including client counseling, negotiation, and strategic problem solving.
  • Ability to manage multiple high-priority matters, meet deadlines, and work collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.
  • Familiarity with electronic discovery tools and litigation practice management software; commitment to professional development and staying current on evolving L&E law.
