Job Description

About Us

 

At ChrisMatthew Group, we support a diverse group of companies under one umbrella, providing top-tier legal and compliance services that protect and empower employers. We’re seeking an experienced Employment Litigation Attorney to join our in-house legal team. If you’re driven, strategic, and ready to make a difference across a wide range of industries, we want to hear from you.

 

 

Position Summary

 

This role is ideal for a mid-level attorney who thrives in civil litigation and has the ability to lead their own caseload. The position is 80% litigation and 20% general counsel compliance, with exposure to single-plaintiff cases, PAGA claims, and class action defense. You’ll act as both a strategic legal partner and an active litigator, handling matters from intake to resolution.

 

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Consult with business units to prevent, navigate, and resolve complex employment law issues.
  • Manage and lead employment litigation matters including single-plaintiff, PAGA, and class action cases.
  • Conduct legal research and communicate risk and resolution strategies clearly to clients.
  • Draft, review, and file legal documents, including pleadings, discovery, and motions.
  • Represent clients in depositions, mediations, and court proceedings.
  • Negotiate settlements with opposing counsel while protecting business interests.
  • Advise on compliance matters such as wage and hour, leave laws, and workplace investigations.
  • Collaborate with internal departments and provide training or policy guidance when needed.

 

 

Qualifications

  • Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school.
  • Licensed to practice in California and in good standing.
  • 4+ years of civil litigation experience, with an emphasis on employment law (defense-side preferred).
  • Experience with PAGA, class action, and single-plaintiff defense required.
  • Demonstrated ability to develop case strategies and handle matters independently.
  • Organized, punctual, detail-oriented, and proactive.
  • Spanish-speaking is a plus, but not required.
