Labor & Employment Litigation Associate Attorney
Apply NowColorado has passed more employer-side law in five years than most states pass in twenty — pay transparency, the POWR Act, the non-compete overhaul — and the Denver employment litigators who know it cold have more work than their groups can staff.
An AmLaw 100 firm with a national labor & employment practice is hiring an employment litigation associate (2–5 years) in Denver. Base salary $210K–$260K depending on experience, plus bonus eligibility.

The work includes:
- Wage and hour class and collective actions under the FLSA and Colorado wage law
- Single-plaintiff discrimination, retaliation, and harassment litigation under Title VII, the ADA, the FMLA, and CADA
- EEOC and Colorado Civil Rights Division charges, position statements, and mediations
- Employment counseling, compliance under Colorado's pay transparency and POWR Act regimes, and drafting employment and restrictive covenant agreements
What you bring:
- 2–5 years of labor & employment litigation experience at a firm
- Deposition, discovery, and motion practice reps in employment matters
- Strong writing and attention to detail; strong academics
- Colorado bar admission or the ability to waive in
What you get:
- An expanding Denver group inside a national platform, so the case flow doesn't depend on one office's client base
- A defense-side employment practice that stays busy in every economic cycle and travels well across markets
- Base salary $210K–$260K depending on experience, plus bonus eligibility and a full benefits package
