    Senior Employment Litigation Counsel - REMOTE - CA Bar

    A nationally respected management-side labor and employment law platform is seeking an experienced Employment Litigation attorney (7+ years) to join them as Remote Senior Attorney/Counsel supporting a dedicated Professional Employer Organization (PEO) client and its carrier in Northern California.

    This non-partner-track role is designed for a senior attorney who enjoys owning day-to-day litigation, delivering consistent, high-quality service to a sophisticated client, and practicing law at a high level — without business development pressure.

    The Role

    You will manage a high-volume employment litigation docket from inception through resolution, serving as a primary point of contact for the PEO client, its customers, and the insurer. The practice is largely focused on administrative charges, attorney demand letters, and single-plaintiff employment litigation, with potential exposure to class actions and PAGA matters.

    While the platform is remote, this role requires regular in-person advocacy. Candidates must be comfortable and available for court appearances, depositions, mediations, hearings, and trials, with some travel as needed in Northern California.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Handle employment matters end-to-end, including EPLI-covered claims
    • Develop case strategy and manage matters independently
    • Draft and review pleadings, motions, and discovery
    • Take and defend depositions
    • Represent clients in hearings, conferences, mediations, and trials
    • Supervise and mentor attorneys and legal staff
    • Collaborate closely with partners, associates, paralegals, and shared support teams
    • Maintain proactive communication with the PEO client and insurance carrier

    Qualifications

    • JD from an ABA-accredited law school
    • 7+ years of employment law and litigation experience
    • Active California bar admission (required)
    • Experience appearing regularly in court and handling in-person proceedings
    • Ability to manage a high-volume docket independently

    Preferred Experience

    • Prior law firm experience
    • Experience working with PEOs
    • EPLI matters and insurer relationships
    • Comfort working in a remote environment while supporting in-person litigation needs

    Why This Opportunity

    • Remote platform with meaningful flexibility, and negotiable billable hours target
    • No business development or book-of-business expectations
    • Dedicated, long-term client relationship (not rotating matters)
    • Sophisticated employment litigation work
    • Collaborative, service-driven environment with strong internal support

    Location Requirement:

    Remote and based in Northern California. Candidates should be able to make in-person court appearances and related proceedings as needed.
