Hourly billing involves clients paying for legal services based on the attorney's hourly rate and the time spent providing legal representation. If an employment attorney charges on an hourly basis, it can range from $300 to $1500 per hour.
Employers and HR departments may perceive the involvement of an attorney as a prelude to litigation, potentially leading to a defensive and less cooperative stance. Furthermore, any statements made to HR can be meticulously analyzed and potentially used against you in future legal proceedings.
Employment lawyers represent individual employees, while labor lawyers primarily represent labor unions and their members. Employment lawyers handle a broader range of workplace issues affecting individual employees, while labor lawyers specialize in union-related matters.
There are many types of lawyers that rarely (if ever) go into court, as the scope of their work does not require it.
Many labor lawyers will work directly with unions or with corporations to perform the necessary negotiations, dispute resolution, and other interactions between these two entities. Often, labor lawyers argue their cases to an arbitrator, not a judge, in court.
Trial length in employment cases depends on the facts of the case and the the courtroom's time limitations. Every judge in California has an extremely large caseload. Judge's try very hard to give the lawyers time to present their case. But unfortunately, most employment trials must be completed in a week or two.

An employment attorney can evaluate your situation, gather evidence, and guide you through the process of filing a complaint with the appropriate agencies, such as the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (DLSE).
One of the greatest benefits many attorneys enjoy when they become staff attorneys is achieving a better work-life balance. While firm culture and demands in the legal industry vary, staff attorneys typically face different expectations than their associate counterparts.
