Mission Recruiting
West Hollywood, CA(remote)
Our client is a highly regarded plaintiff-side employment law firm seeking a Senior Employment Attorney to join its growing practice. This is an opportunity for an experienced litigator to step into a meaningful, high-impact role with substantial autonomy, strong institutional support, and a sustainable workload.
The Opportunity
You will handle complex employment matters from inception through resolution, including wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and wage-and-hour claims. The firm prioritizes strategic litigation, thoughtful advocacy, and professional excellence, volume-driven practices in favor of well-managed, high-quality cases.
Senior attorneys are trusted with ownership of their matters while benefiting from a collaborative environment that includes skilled support staff, experienced colleagues, and streamlined internal systems.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage and litigate employment cases through discovery, motion practice, depositions, mediation, and trial as appropriate
- Serve as lead or senior counsel on complex matters
- Draft and argue dispositive and procedural motions
- Take and defend depositions of parties, witnesses, and experts
- Work directly with clients, providing strategic guidance and clear communication
- Mentor junior attorneys as needed
Ideal Candidate Profile
- 7+ years of employment law litigation experience (plaintiff-side strongly preferred)
- Demonstrated experience handling cases independently
- Strong deposition, motion, and negotiation skills
- Trial experience is valued but not required
- Active California Bar membership in good standing
- Professional judgment, intellectual rigor, and a client-centered mindset
Why This Role Stands Out
- Autonomy with support: Senior attorneys are empowered, not micromanaged
- Quality over quantity: Manageable caseloads that allow for excellent lawyering
- Flexibility: Remote or hybrid options available (California-based practice)
- Stability and growth: A well-established firm with a strong pipeline of cases
- Competitive compensation: $180,000 Base salary plus performance-based incentives
If you are a seasoned employment attorney looking for a role that values your experience, respects your time, and allows you to focus on meaningful advocacy, this position offers a compelling next step.
Salary Range: $180,000
