Colorado 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.
You'd take a real piece of every matter from the position statement through trial — class and collective actions, single-plaintiff cases, and agency charges — with depositions, motions, and arbitrations at your level, and counseling work for HR and executive clients as you grow into it.
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
