Established LA Employer-Side Firm with Monthly Retainer Client
Business Description
Established California civil litigation practice focused on employer-side labor and employment defense, available to a qualified California-licensed attorney or firm looking to acquire a running book of business rather than build one.
The practice is anchored by a long-term monthly retainer with a business client, currently running into 2028, covering active employment litigation and ongoing general advice. Beyond employment defense, the practice handles business-to-business disputes, class actions, real estate trials, appeals and writs, mediation, and arbitration. An active matter is also approaching mediation.
Annual revenue is approximately $700,000 based on bank deposits. The practice operates virtually with no office lease, keeping overhead low, and is supported by one experienced full-time contract paralegal. Financial statements, bank records, and client engagement agreements are assembled and available for review after an NDA.
The owner is selling for personal reasons and is committed to a transition period to introduce the buyer to clients and ensure continuity of representation.
This is an ideal opportunity for an employment defense attorney or small firm seeking immediate cash flow and an established client relationship. Buyer must be licensed to practice law in California. Proof of funds required. Client notification will be handled in accordance with California Rule of Professional Conduct 1.17.

- Opportunities for Growth
- A buyer can grow the practice by replicating its retainer model with additional employer clients, converting one-off matters into recurring monthly engagements. An acquiring firm with its own associates can take on more matters than a solo practice can handle, and can cross-sell the practice's clients into adjacent services such as HR compliance counseling, workplace investigations, or wage-and-hour audits. The practice's appellate and trial experience also supports expansion into higher-value litigation. Marketing has been largely relationship-driven, so a buyer with an active business development program has room to add clients quickly.
