National employment law firm serving enterprise employers across 15+ practice areas
Fisher Phillips is a 500+ person employment-focused law firm with global reach, advising enterprise clients on labor, immigration, workplace safety, and AI/data governance. The hiring mix—65 legal roles, 11 marketing, 10 HR, and 3 engineering—reflects a traditional partnership structure scaling business development and intake workflows rather than building internal tech capability. Pain points cluster around recruiting (law student pipelines, diversity sourcing) and operational friction (conflicts management, leadership coordination, vendor cost control), suggesting growth outpacing back-office maturity.
Fisher Phillips advises employers on complex workplace matters across employment law, immigration, labor relations, mergers & acquisitions, healthcare compliance, and emerging areas like AI/data governance and alternative dispute resolution. The firm operates through a partner-led model with hundreds of attorneys globally, serving enterprise clients who face high-profile regulatory or litigation exposure. Core practice areas include California class action defense, FCRA/background screening, employee benefits, trade secrets, workplace accommodations, and industry-specific counsel for automotive dealerships, life sciences, financial services, and construction. The firm is exclusive to employer representation—a positioning that shapes both client relationships and internal hiring priorities toward legal expertise and business development over technology roles.
Fisher Phillips posts roles in the United States, India, Peru, Canada, and the United Kingdom, with the majority concentrated in the US market.
Active initiatives include developing conflicts policies and ethical walls, scaling law student recruitment and on-campus interview programs, building out new practice areas, business development campaigns, and vendor cost optimization.
