At ChrisMatthew Group, we support a diverse portfolio of businesses with HR, legal, and compliance solutions designed to protect our people and operations. We are seeking an Entry-Level Attorney with 12 years of experience in employment law to join our Legal team. This is a unique opportunity to gain deep hands-on experience in a fast-paced, employer-side practice that spans multiple industries and companies under one organizational umbrella.

Youll work closely with paralegals, HR partners, and outside counsel, and will gain exposure to real-world cases while being mentored by seasoned legal professionals.

Key Responsibilities

  • Draft legal responses to claims from EDD, DFEH/CRD, EEOC, and DLSE/Labor Board.
  • Support internal investigations by preparing notes, legal summaries, and document review.
  • Provide guidance to HR teams on legal best practices in performance, discipline, and terminations.
  • Help oversee a high-volume caseload across multiple businesses and industries.
  • Assist with discovery responses, subpoena compliance, and litigation hold procedures.
  • Conduct legal research and prepare memoranda as needed.
  • Stay updated on changes to California and federal employment law.
  • Collaborate with outside counsel and internal stakeholders to move matters forward efficiently.
  • Maintain confidentiality and professionalism in all case-related activities.

  • Licensed to practice law in California.
  • 12 years of employment law experience (internship, firm, or in-house experience welcome).
  • Familiarity with wage and hour laws, discrimination and harassment claims, and employer-side compliance.
  • Strong legal writing, research, and analytical skills.
  • Excellent time management and ability to juggle multiple deadlines.
  • Collaborative, detail-oriented, and eager to learn.
  • Bilingual in Spanish is a plus but not required.
