metairie, United States Sessions, Israel & Shartle, LLC Full time

Sessions, Israel & Shartle, LLC is a national law firm with 11 offices and attorneys licensed in 14 additional jurisdictions. Although the Firm’s practice is broad, we focus primarily on Consumer Defense; Compliance & Regulatory; Employment Law; Business & Transactions; Licensing; Securities Litigation; Bankruptcy Law; Commercial Litigation; and Appellate Practice.


We are seeking to hire attorneys to help grow our employment law practice.


Who we are:

The Employment Law Section is led by Kevin Barreca and David Israel. This group of attorneys provides legal guidance to employers on workplace issues, drafts and reviews employment policies and procedures, and represents businesses in employment and wage and hour disputes.


What our employment law attorneys do:

1. Day-to-day employment law advice and legal support regarding internal investigations and documentation of the outcome in a privileged and confidential manner.

2. Drafting of severance agreements, termination documents, performance improvement plans, and countless other communications and policies in a legally compliant manner.

3. Drafting and revising of employment handbooks, policies, and procedures so that clients can run their businesses knowing that various federal and state laws and regulations have been communicated properly.

4. Nationwide employment litigation defense representation from single-plaintiff cases to the largest class or collective actions, whether filed by plaintiff attorneys or government agencies.

5. Nationwide coverage for all regulatory complaints from virtually every federal, state, and local enforcement agency relating to employment issues.

6. Audits for wage and hour compliance to ensure that employees are classified properly (exempt vs. non-exempt) under federal and state wage and hour laws, to defend Department of Labor and state agency investigations, and to protect against federal and related state collective actions (class actions).

7. A review of affirmative action compliance by ensuring affirmative action plans are compliant with the O.F.C.C.P. requirements and all “money-issues” (hiring, firing, transfers, promotions, demotions, and pay equity) are identified, analyzed, and corrected.

8. Drafting, reviewing, and revising of executive-level offer letters and employment agreements.

9. Drafting and enforcement of arbitration agreements, non-compete agreements, and customer/client non-solicitation provisions to protect employer interests.

10. Analyses (including pay disparities) if there is discriminatory treatment or impact with employment practices.

11. Training in all aspects of employment law—from wage and hour compliance to F.M.L.A. to ensure there is no workplace harassment or misconduct.

12. Due diligence for potential mergers and acquisitions to identify potential legal exposure and risks before any deal closing.

13. WARN Act research, drafting, and advice regarding how and when to comply with federal and state notice requirements with respect to employee layoffs or extended furloughs.

14. A highly secure, technical Form I-9 audit to ensure clients have accurate I-9s on file by remediating I-9 issues before an ICE no-knock visit, where clients are also trained to on-board employees properly and to follow federal and state employment authorization and Form I-9 requirements.


Skills and qualifications needed:

1. JD Degree from an ABA-approved law school.

2. One of the following: top 1/2 of law school class, law review, and/or moot court.

3. Employment law experience is preferred, but not required; insurance coverage experience helpful.

4. Licensure in more than one state and federal court admissions helpful.

5. Familiarity with Microsoft Office products.

6. Comfortable in a paperless environment.

7. Ability to manage and prioritize a large caseload.

8. Ability to analyze cases and issues and develop strategies.

9. Independent and highly motivated.

10. Excellent research, writing, and communications skills.


What we offer:

1. Competitive salary and bonus potential.

2. HSA qualified medical plans.

3. 401K plan with automatic Firm contribution.


How to apply:

Submit a resume, transcript, and 2 writing samples for consideration to resumes@sessions.legal.
