Deputy Attorney General – Employment Law Section California Department of Justice
2 weeks ago
Do you love litigation and want more trial experience? Are you committed to serving the people of the State of California? Are you interested in defending the operations of over 100 critical state agencies?
As part of our team in the Employment Law Section (ELS) of the California Department of Justice, you will handle challenges involving the Fair Employment and Housing Act, Title VII, Americans with Disabilities Act, Family and Medical Leave Act, California Family Rights Act, and the Whistleblower Protection Act, among others.
ELS deputy duties include:
- Independently handling all aspects of complex civil employment cases, including drafting and arguing motions, interviewing witnesses, conducting and defending depositions and other discovery, preparing and arguing summary judgment motions, expert discovery, and preparing for trial.
- Handling jury and bench trials.
- Handling contested administrative evidentiary hearings before the State Personnel Board.
- Defending agency administrative actions against petitions for writs of mandamus.
- Drafting appellate briefs and arguing before the Courts of Appeal and Ninth Circuit.
- Obtaining work safety and gun violence restraining orders.
- Communicating with clients, including providing detailed case analyses and recommendations.
- Providing training, guidance, and advice to state agencies on a variety of employment and personnel matters.
- Communicating with judges, court staff, juries, and witnesses.
- Working cooperatively, professionally, and effectively with colleagues, opposing counsel, and clients.
All applicants must reside in California and be active members in good standing of the California State Bar.
ELS deputies may largely choose to telework or come into the office, at their option. We are a litigation section, so there are some times when in-office attendance will be required for meetings, court appearances, or other operational reasons. Otherwise, deputies may freely telework if that is their preference. Deputies are expected to be able to report to the office if an urgent need arises and are expected to be available for meetings and to respond to emails and phone calls during regular business hours.
