Job Description

Employment Litigation Attorney – Partnership Track

Cincinnati, OH | Full-Time | Hybrid

Want real courtroom work, a partnership track and a bonus plan that rewards results? This plaintiff-side employment role offers all three.

Protem Legal is working closely with a distinguished employee-side employment litigation practice to recruit an Employment Litigation Attorney.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Partnership track toward ownership and leadership
• Generous bonus structure on top of a $72,000–$114,000 base
• Hands-on discovery, depositions, mediations and trial work
• Mentoring from attorneys who share strategy and help each other improve
• Flexible work-from-home policy, health benefits and a gym membership program

About the Role

You'll represent employees facing discrimination, retaliation, harassment, wrongful termination and other workplace violations. Your clients are taking on employers with more resources, so you'll bring preparation, judgment and determination to each case, from first evaluation through resolution.

What You'll Do

• Run plaintiff-side employment cases from intake evaluation through litigation and resolution
• Build case strategy and identify the critical evidence
• Draft pleadings, discovery, motions and briefs
• Take and defend depositions and prepare clients and witnesses to testify
• Represent clients in court, mediation and settlement negotiations, and prepare cases for trial
• Keep clients informed with clear, practical advice

What We're Looking For

• J.D. and an active Ohio law license in good standing
• Strong research, persuasive writing and analytical skills
• Sound judgment and the ability to juggle competing deadlines
• A real commitment to representing employees

Helpful Experience

• Litigation experience (attorneys with transferable litigation skills are encouraged even without employment-law background)

Work Environment

This is a Cincinnati office role with a flexible work-from-home policy.

Compensation

The posted base range is $72,000–$114,000 a year, plus a generous performance bonus structure.
