Junior Employment Litigtion Attorney

Are you passionate about fighting for fairness in the workplace? Do you want to make a real impact in people’s lives while building a rewarding legal career? A well-established plaintiff employment law firm in Orange County is seeking an Entry-level Litigation Attorney to join their growing team.

This is not just another litigation role — it’s a chance to be mentored by experienced trial attorneys, gain hands-on courtroom exposure, and do meaningful work advocating for employees facing discrimination, harassment, and wage disputes.

We’ve placed attorneys and staff here before, and they’ve told us this firm is a place where you can learn, grow, and actually enjoy coming to work. The culture is supportive, collaborative, and focused on helping every team member succeed.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Real impact: Work on cases that directly improve clients’ lives.
• Career growth: Mentorship from seasoned litigators and the chance to build trial skills early.
• Positive culture: A friendly, close-knit team where attorneys and staff are genuinely happy.
• Hands-on experience: From discovery to hearings and mediations, you’ll be in the action.

What You’ll Do:

• Draft motions, pleadings, and discovery responses
• Conduct legal research and support case strategy
• Interact with clients and opposing counsel
• Participate in hearings, depositions, and mediations
• Support trial teams and take on increasing responsibility as you grow

What We’re Looking For:

• 1–3 years of litigation experience (employment law a plus, but not required)
• California Bar admission in good standing
• Strong writing and research skills
• Passion for employee rights and justice
• A team-oriented mindset and eagerness to learn

What You’ll Get:

• Competitive salary and full benefits package
• Ongoing training and professional development
• Mentorship and trial exposure uncommon at the junior level
• A firm culture that values your voice and contributions

If you’re looking for more than just a job — if you want to be part of a mission-driven practice while building a strong foundation for your litigation career — this is the opportunity for you.
