Spitz, the Employee’s Law Firm, is seeking a talented Kentucky attorney who wants to do meaningful work representing employees whose careers and livelihoods have been impacted by discrimination, retaliation, harassment, wrongful termination, and other unlawful workplace conduct.

This is a remote position. You can live and work anywhere in Kentucky. We care far more about finding the right attorney than where in the Commonwealth you happen to live.

At Spitz, you will handle real cases for real people facing some of the most difficult moments of their professional lives. You will work alongside experienced employment litigators, take depositions, argue motions, develop case strategy, negotiate settlements, and prepare cases for trial. This is not a document-review position or a job where junior attorneys spend years waiting for meaningful responsibility.

We are looking for someone who is smart, driven, compassionate, and eager to become an exceptional employment lawyer. Prior employment-law experience is valuable, but it is not required. Strong litigators and attorneys from other practice areas who have excellent judgment, writing skills, and a genuine desire to advocate for employees are encouraged to apply.

Spitz offers the opportunity to build a sophisticated litigation practice while working remotely from anywhere in Kentucky. If you want challenging cases, meaningful responsibility, strong mentorship, and a career where your work directly matters to the people you represent, we want to hear from you.
