Your New Role:
Are you seeking a rewarding position at a mission-driven law firm? Join this award-winning plaintiffs’ firm, where you’ll act as a Jr. Litigation Legal Assistant supporting a team of attorneys and paralegals.

Your primary responsibilities will include calendaring, tracking deadlines, making travel arrangements, and maintaining client files.

You’ll get top-notch benefits that include full medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and your dependents; disability and life insurance; an HSA with firm contributions; a 401(k) plus match; paid parking; paid time off; and discretionary bonuses.
