Job Description
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
We are a boutique plaintiff side employment law firm seeking a passionate, driven, and thorough attorney with a commitment to excellence and getting results to join our team of advocates. The ideal candidate will be aggressive and assertive in their interactions with opposing counsel, know how to balance compassion and diligence, thrive in both collaborative and independent efforts, possess confidence, and is seeking a career where they can make a good living, feel a sense of accomplishment, and grow as a human being. OUR MISSION
Justice Law Corporation comes from humble yet noble beginnings. Founded by Douglas Han in 2013, after being inspired by the plight of aggrieved oil workers in Kern County, Justice Law Corporation has grown from being the ambitious dream of one man into a resilient force to be reckoned with. Since the inception of the firm, through the combined efforts of first-rate attorneys and determined legal support staff, we’ve achieved millions of dollars in recoveries on behalf of employees against dozens of large companies throughout the state of California.
We see it as our privilege to advocate for hard-working men and women by providing them with a skilled and resourceful team to amplify their voices. Wage theft, which has been called “the crime no one talks about,” is one of the many unfortunate realities that beleaguer the average American worker today. So, we pride ourselves in the fact that we champion workers’ rights in a time where they are often taken advantage of. Our work has statewide reach and is effecting change in every industry to protect both the rights of workers today and for future generations. COMPANY CULTURE
We offer generous benefits and competitive compensation. At our firm, attorneys have an ample opportunity to learn, excel, and further their career. We strive to cultivate a culture of well-rounded success and foster an environment where each team member not only excels at their tasks, but consistently advances to new heights as they grow with the firm. You will be welcomed into a dynamic workplace where your skills and creativity will be put to the test in a supportive and amicable atmosphere of committed professionals. We seek to establish a relationship of trust and motivation where team members have all the resources to put their best foot forward in all that they do.
At our firm, we understand that it takes hard-work and determination to excel in the legal field, but we also acknowledge that it’s important for attorneys to maintain a healthy work-life balance, so we make it a point to take into consideration the needs of the person behind the title. Moreover, we believe that it’s our fundamental duty as members of the community and nation to help out fellow humans in need. So, in addition to advocating for workers’ rights every day, we contribute to charitable organizations and offer myriad opportunities for team members to volunteer and extend a helping hand to those who need it.
We understand that in today’s world, both the workplace and the country at large is rapidly changing as a result of everything from technological advances to cultural shifts. To ensure that we are one with the times, we are committed to creating a workplace that goes beyond the traditional stereotype of what a law firm is. If you’re interested in being a part of a dynamic, committed, and diligent team of advocates we encourage you to apply.
