The Opportunity
Our national Innovative Staffing Team (IST) is an elite, highly trained "swat team" of Labor and Employment lawyers who want our most flexible role: a fully-remote, hourly position that comes with the excitement of working with the best employment team in the country. We now have over 35 IST lawyers around the country, and we are attracting former partners and senior associates from firms as well as in-house who want the advantages and experience of working on exciting matters but not the demands of a full time, partner track position. Each of our IST lawyers are tied directly to one of our national offices but can be physically located in many states throughout the country. Importantly, you'll be a member of our consistently top-ranked and nationally recognized Labor & Employment practice group.
We are expanding this team and invite you to learn more about this unique opportunity.
Learn more about our Labor & Employment department.
You Have
  • 5+ years of increasingly responsible employment litigation experience, preferably on the management-side.
  • Familiarity with and experience in federal and state court practice, as well as with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Department of Labor, and other federal, state and local government administrative agencies.
  • Litigation experience, including drafting responsive pleadings, handling all aspects of the discovery process, and drafting motions, including motions for summary judgment. Candidates should also have the ability to handle a practice that includes handling EEOC charges, including defending investigations, preparing position statements, defending clients in fact-finding conferences and on-site visits, representing clients in mediations and conciliations, and negotiating settlements.
  • A collegiate, cooperative approach and enjoy working with experienced lawyers sharing ideas, resources and best practices.
  • A desire to work on exciting matters without the demands of a full-time, on track position. You do the work you agree to take on, with no obligations for marketing or other contribution hours.
  • Strong time management skills, and a flexibility around potential work flow. There is no billable hours expectation, and your schedule is up to you! Ideally, however, we would like candidates to commit to being available to work 1000 or more hours per hours a year depending on the specific casework.
  • An active bar license in the state in which you will reside and one in which Seyfarth maintains an office.

What We Provide
We provide competitive salary and benefits at all levels, including a hands-on learning experience by working side-by-side with our partners.
