Advocates Legal Recruiting
Labor Employment Litigation Mid to Senior Level Associate
Advocates Legal Recruiting, San Francisco, California, United States
LABOR & EMPLOYMENT LITIGATION ASSOCIATE
San Francisco
A top AmLaw 100 is adding to its San Francisco labor and employment group. This is a litigation-forward practice with a steady pipeline of high-stakes matters and real responsibility from day one. The platform is established, the work is sophisticated, and the team is busy for the right reasons.
The Role This associate will focus on employer-side labor and employment litigation, with an emphasis on complex matters. The docket includes:
Wage and hour class and PAGA actions
Discrimination and harassment class claims
Representative actions in state and federal courts
Targeted advice and internal investigations, as needed
You will work closely with partners who try cases, brief dispositive motions, and regularly appear before California courts. This is not a narrow role and not a back-office position.
Candidate Profile
JD class years 2017–2021
At least three years of labor and employment experience at a peer firm
Hands‑on experience with class or representative actions strongly preferred
Strong brief writing and motion practice skills
California bar admission or ability to waive in
Associates coming from sophisticated employment practices who want deeper exposure to complex litigation will be well positioned here.
Why This Role
High-end employer-side litigation without a niche ceiling
Meaningful responsibility on class actions rather than document-only work
Direct access to partners and leanly staffed matters
Compensation currently ranging from $310,000 to $435,000, plus discretionary bonus
San Francisco-based practice with national reach
This is a serious seat for associates who want to sharpen their litigation profile in a market-leading labor and employment group.
Next Step If you have the experience to contribute immediately and want to have a confidential conversation, reach out directly. Submissions are handled discreetly.
