Job Description

Why Pivot to Us?
Lucrative Earnings: Plaintiff-side settlements often surpass Big Law billable hours, unlocking significant financial rewards.
Remote Freedom: Work from anywhere in California with minimal office visits (senior team members attend every 4-6 weeks).
Fast-Track Growth: Become a Team Lead in months, with a proven path to rapid promotions.
Recession-Proof Practice: Wage and hour litigation thrives in downturns, ensuring steady work in a field dominating California’s courts.
Leverage Your Expertise: Your Big Law training in discovery, depositions, and procedure seamlessly fuels our high-stakes class action practice.
Join our leading California-based law firm, dominating wage and hour class actions and PAGA litigation, as we expand our top-performing team. We’re seeking Big Law employment defense attorneys ready to pivot their litigation expertise to a high-impact, plaintiff-side practice with exceptional earning potential and rapid career growth. Transition to the hottest area of employment law in California, where 49 PAGA cases are filed daily and 95% of some judges’ dockets are wage and hour matters.
Key Responsibilities
Manage a caseload of ~40 wage and hour class action cases after initial training.
Apply your defense-honed skills to draft written discovery, conduct depositions, and represent clients in court hearings.
Engage confidently with clients and opposing counsel, leveraging your professional presence.
Qualifications:
2-7 years of litigation experience, with at least 1 year in employment law (defense experience at firms like Ogletree, or Jackson Lewis strongly preferred; FEHA or PAGA experience a plus).
Eagerness to shift to wage and hour class actions/PAGA litigation as a career focus (no prior wage and hour experience needed; full training provided).
Ability to work remotely across California with occasional travel (1-2 times/month) for court hearings, depositions, or client meetings.
First week in-person in Los Angeles for onboarding and systems training; fully remote thereafter.
Procedural rigor, professional demeanor, and drive to excel in a high-demand practice.
Apply Now : Ready to transform your employment defense experience into plaintiff-side success? Apply to join a premier firm revolutionizing wage and hour litigation. We seek defense attorneys passionate about mastering this dynamic field. Note: While FEHA experience is valued, our focus is wage and hour/PAGA, so commitment to this practice is essential.
