Remote Employment Attorney Jobs

Yes — every role posted on this site was advertised as remote by the employer. That's our single inclusion criterion: if a position wasn't presented as remote, it doesn't get listed, so every employment attorney role here is a remote-advertised one. Please note that while we do our best to keep listings accurate, employers occasionally make mistakes in their own postings, so in rare cases a role advertised as remote may turn out not to be — we always recommend confirming the arrangement directly with the employer before you apply.

They counsel employers, and sometimes employees, on workplace issues — drafting policies and agreements, advising on hiring, discipline, and termination, handling discrimination, harassment, and wage-and-hour questions, supporting investigations, and managing or defending employment claims. The mix depends on whether the role is advisory, compliance, or litigation.

Employment law governs the individual employer-employee relationship — discrimination, wage-and-hour, leave, and termination. Labor law deals with unions and collective bargaining. They overlap, and some roles cover both, often labeled 'labor and employment'; listings usually specify.

Compensation varies by experience and setting, but remote employment attorney roles in the US commonly range from around $110,000 to $220,000+ in base salary, often with bonus. Individual postings list compensation where the employer provides it.

Often yes — employment law varies significantly by state, and sometimes by city, so remote roles supporting a distributed workforce frequently require multi-state knowledge. Active bar admission is required; specific state needs vary by employer, so check each listing.

Generally yes — much of the work is advisory, policy, and document-driven, done by video and email, which is why many employment roles are offered remotely. Litigation-focused roles may involve occasional in-person proceedings; the employer will set expectations.
