What is a litigator?

A litigator is a law professional who represents people in all types of legal cases. In this career, you may work for a client during mediation or settlement proceedings as well as on matters that are heard by a judge in court. Since most civil cases settle out of court, negotiating settlements can be a big part of your job. However, as a litigator, your duties extend to all aspects of the legal process including pre-trial research and preparation, negotiating, arranging evidence and witnesses, representing the client in court, and filing relevant appeals.

While both Litigators and Paralegals work within the legal industry, Litigators are licensed attorneys who represent clients in court and handle complex legal proceedings. Paralegals support litigators by conducting research, preparing documents, and managing case files. The roles differ mainly in credentials, responsibilities, and level of legal authority.

Job description

Prestigious Century City based employment firm is looking for a senior litigator with at least 5 years of class action and/or PAGA litigation experience to join the firm's litigation team. The firm is one of the leading plaintiff-only labor and consumer law firms in California, recognized for developing law on numerous cutting-edge issues in wage and hour and consumer law.
 
The firm fiercely litigates on behalf of its clients and has obtained over $100,000,000 in relief for employees and consumers. This is a senior or partner level position and the right candidate needs to know how to run a docket and manage a team of attorneys. This can be a fully remote position and the firm offers a competitive compensation package that includes salary commensurate with experience + quarterly bonuses, 401(k) plan, generous paid time-off, medical, dental and vision insurance and opportunities for advancement and professional growth.
 
Must be licensed and in good standing in CA and have a superior academic background or direct relevant experience.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
