Big Law Employment Defense to Plaintiff Powerhouse : Wage & Hour Attorney (Remote, High Earnings)

Job Title : Litigation Attorney (Junior to Managing Attorney) – Employment (Wage & Hour and PAGA)

Job Location : The firm will consider hiring remote candidates if they live in CA. If not working onsite, they’ll only need to go to the office approximately once per month. The firm is open to candidates with at least 1 or more years of CA Wage & Hour and PAGA employment experience but wants to add senior-level talent as well. They are equally focused on hiring mid-level to senior or senior supervisory attorneys.

Compensation And Benefits

  • Base Salary : $140,000 - $250,000 per year (Top earners can expect to be in the mid-to high six-figures range; $600,000+).
  • Additional Compensation : Opportunity to earn a % of the firm's recovery on cases handled.
  • Benefits Include :
  • 401(k) plan
  • Comprehensive health (50% coverage level includes dependents), dental, and vision insurance
  • Flexible time off policy
  • Referral program
  • Discretionary quarterly bonuses

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.

  • 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

  • Eagerness to focuse on 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.
