Full Job Description
Description

We are expanding our North Carolina practice and looking for a lawyer who wants meaningful work, real responsibility, and the opportunity to build a serious litigation career. This is a fully remote position that may be performed from anywhere in North Carolina.

Our attorneys represent employees facing discrimination, sexual harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination, FMLA violations, unpaid wages and overtime, and other workplace violations. These cases matter. Clients often come to us during one of the most difficult periods of their careers, and they need lawyers who will listen, think strategically, communicate clearly, and fight for them.

You will work directly with clients, evaluate claims, develop case strategy, negotiate with opposing counsel, take and defend depositions, draft and argue motions, conduct discovery, participate in mediations, and prepare cases for trial.

At Spitz, responsibility follows performance. You do not have to wait for a particular class year or title before taking on meaningful work. As your judgment and skills develop, so will your responsibility.

You also will not be expected to figure everything out on your own. You will work with experienced trial attorneys who provide mentorship, feedback, strategy, and support while giving you the opportunity to develop your own judgment, confidence, and advocacy skills.
