Lewis Brisbois prides itself on offering a collegial, team-oriented, supportive environment for its attorneys. Although we expect junior attorneys to work hard, grow and take on more first-chair responsibilities as they mature, we understand that this process means different things to different attorneys, and we work with them in ensuring that they are getting the experience they need and want while not forcing them to take on responsibilities – such as taking depositions or first-chairing trials – that they do not feel ready for.
 
We are looking for an attorney admitted to practice in Washington who has at least three (3) to four (4) years of experience in employment law matters, although we will also consider candidates who have less relevant experience but a demonstrated interest in employment law. Qualified candidates will be excellent at legal research and writing and dedicated to the practice of civil litigation. They will also have experience assisting senior level attorneys with all aspects of litigation, including interviewing witnesses, speaking with clients and opposing counsel, and drafting pleadings, discovery, and motions. They will also have at least some experience preparing for and assisting with trial preparation (i.e., experience drafting witness and exhibit disclosures, motions in limine, preparing witnesses) and with second-chairing a trial. Preferably, they will also have experience handling charges of discrimination filed with the EEOC and WSHRC and drafting position statements and responding to inquiries from administrative agencies.
 
Lewis Brisbois' Labor & Employment Practice represents clients from coast to coast in all phases and types of employment litigation, counseling, and training. Our team of employment professionals is spread throughout our locations across the United States and provides clients with sound counsel in dozens of jurisdictions. Our size and geographic coverage allow us to provide our clients with consistent representation throughout the nation.
