About this role
We are looking for a Labor & Employment Counsel with 9-12 years of experience to join Fox Rothschild's Los Angeles office. This is someone with true wage and hour expertise who can independently manage matters and oversee associates — the kind of attorney a partner can hand a case to and trust them to run with it.
What will you be doing?
Managing labor & employment litigation matters from start to finish with minimal partner oversight
Defending single plaintiff claims (discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wage & hour, reasonable accommodation)
Handling PAGA matters and class actions
Taking and defending depositions, drafting and arguing dispositive motions
Supervising and mentoring associates on the team
Key Requirements
9-12 years of California labor & employment litigation experience, particularly wage and hour
Licensed to practice law in the State of California
Ability to independently manage cases end-to-end without heavy partner supervision
Hands-on courtroom experience — depositions, motions practice, witness prep
Strong research, writing skills, and academic record
What happens next
Skip the application pile. I get you in front of the people who decide.
Confirm the fit
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I pitch you to the company
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
A meeting lands on your calendar
When the company wants to meet, I get the call on your calendar. You just show up.
