Job Description

About the Job:

I am currently working with a respected mid-sized law firm in Michigan that is actively looking to add one associate attorney to their growing Labor & Employment practice. The firm is open to mid-level associates as well as partners with portable business. The Associate role is as follows:

Responsibilities:

  • Handle a broad range of labor & employment matters with minimal supervision.
  • Independently manage cases from intake through resolution, including drafting position statements, dispositive motions, and taking depositions.
  • Advise clients on employment policies, risk mitigation, and workplace disputes (advice & counsel experience is a plus).
  • Participate in mentorship within the group and support junior associates when needed.

Qualifications and Requirements:

  • 3 to 4+ years of dedicated Labor & Employment experience (general litigation alone is not sufficient).
  • Strong writing ability— writing samples such as position statements or MSJs will be required.
  • Experience working in a metropolitan market (e.g., Chicago) is a plus.
  • Admitted to practice law in any U.S. jurisdiction with reciprocity to Michigan; Michigan bar admission preferred.
  • Demonstrated ability to run a caseload with autonomy.
  • Strong interpersonal skills; a good personality fit is especially important for this team.

The Firm is Offering:

  • Competitive starting compensation: $180–190K.
  • Bonus structure starts at 1850 hours (1750 client + 100 other billable is the minimum annual requirement).
  • Opportunity for partnership around the 6th or 7th year.
  • Significant investment in associate training and development.
  • Hybrid work model: typically three days a week in office, with flexibility depending on team presence.
  • Multiple offices to pick from throughout Michigan.

About the Firm:

This is a full-service, mid-market firm with a stable platform and national reputation in labor and employment. They maintain a strong and supportive workplace with significant internal investment in attorney growth. Associates are well-mentored, and the firm culture is highly collaborative.

Interested candidates should submit a resume and writing sample for consideration or email their materials to c.dominic.barilla@lhh.com.
