NEW IN – Mid-Level Employment Litigation Attorney | 6–10 Years | Up to $220K DOE | Wage & Hour + Class Actions | National Plaintiff-Side Trial Practice | Remote


I'm currently working with a nationally recognized plaintiff-side litigation firm that is looking to add a Mid-Level Employment Litigation Attorney to its team. This is an opportunity to work on complex wage-and-hour and class action litigation within a firm built around trial work, with exposure to matters being litigated across the country.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Trial-Focused Plaintiff Practice – Join a firm where complex litigation and trial work sit at the centre of the practice, rather than being a secondary capability.
  • National Class Action Exposure – Work on employment matters that can span multiple jurisdictions and involve large-scale wage-and-hour disputes.
  • High-Impact Employment Work – Handle substantive plaintiff-side matters involving misclassification, wage-and-hour violations, PAGA, FLSA and other complex employment claims.
  • Work Alongside Experienced Trial Counsel – Gain exposure to sophisticated litigation strategy while supporting senior attorneys on significant matters.
  • Growing National Platform – Join an expanding plaintiff-side practice with a broader national footprint and opportunities to work beyond a single local market.
  • Remote Working ModelWork fully remotely while remaining part of a nationally active litigation team.


The Role

  • Support senior trial attorneys in developing and litigating plaintiff-side wage-and-hour matters.
  • Draft and refine substantive motions, briefs and other litigation documents.
  • Manage written discovery and take and defend depositions.
  • Handle wage-and-hour disputes involving misclassification, meal and rest break violations, expense reimbursement and off-the-clock work.
  • Work on PAGA and FLSA claims, including representative and collective components where applicable.
  • Support class action litigation from case development through resolution.
  • Contribute to litigation strategy and maintain high-quality written work product.
  • Take increasing ownership of matters as your experience develops.


About You

  • 6–10 years of plaintiff-side employment litigation experience.
  • Active Chicago Bar admission required.
  • Substantive wage-and-hour litigation experience.
  • Experience with misclassification, meal/rest break violations, expense reimbursement, off-the-clock work, PAGA and FLSA claims.
  • Demonstrated ability to support senior trial attorneys.
  • Strong legal writing skills.
  • Two writing samples preferred.
  • Experience with litigation or filings in additional jurisdictions such as NY, NJ, WA or IL is a plus.
  • Leadership potential without being too senior for an associate-level role.


Location

  • Fully remote working arrangement – United States


Package

  • Up to $220,000 base salary, depending on experience and writing strength
  • Bonus eligibility
