Mass Arbitration Counsel

Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll is seeking attorneys to join our Amazon Flex Driver Mass Arbitration team. This is an exceptional opportunity to contribute meaningfully to public service through private practice.  Employment is solely linked to the Amazon Flex Driver Mass Arbitration.  The position is expected to last at least a year and may be renewed depending on the litigation status.

Cohen Milstein, along with our co-counsel Gibbs Mura, represent thousands of current and former Amazon Flex delivery drivers in California, Illinois, and Massachusetts who allege that Amazon misclassified them as independent contractors instead of employees to avoid paying them fair wages or reimbursement for expenses, and to deny them other benefits under these states’ laws. Amazon’s Independent Contractor Terms of Service, to which Flex drivers must agree when signing up for the Flex program, directs Flex drivers’ claims to proceed individually in arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).

More information on the case can be found at https://www.cohenmilstein.com/case-study/amazon-flex-drivers/.

Attorneys will work remotely and, depending on available space, may work in offices in Washington, D.C.  All arbitration proceedings and any depositions will occur by video conference rather than in person.

Some litigation experience is preferred but not required.
