Aileen Kim represents and advises clients across various industries in multidistrict, class, collective, and representative actions, as well as single plaintiff labor and employment matters, including those arising under state wage and hour claims; claims of harassment, discrimination, and retaliation; and claims involving restrictive covenants. She has experience tackling all phases of arbitration and litigation, including pleadings, fact investigation, motion practice, depositions, written discovery, expert discovery, mediation, and trial.
Aileen's practice also involves complex cases arising under federal and state statutes, including California's Uniform Trade Secrets Act (CUTSA), California's Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA), the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), Title VII, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), wage and hour statutes and regulations, and unfair competition law.
In addition to her litigation practice, Aileen counsels employers on their policies and practices to help them navigate California's complex employment laws. Aileen also advises on employment-related diligence on transactions of all sizes and across many borders.
Aileen maintains an active pro bono practice. She successfully briefed and argued an appeal before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, ultimately securing victory and allowing the client to maintain his civil lawsuit that had been wrongly dismissed. Before joining Jones Day, Aileen clerked for Judge Salvador Mendoza Jr. in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington; Judge Mendoza is now serving on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
Aileen has served as chair, social co-chair, and work coordinator for the Irvine Office's summer associate program.
