Why This Is a Great Opportunity

  • Build your legal career with a team willing to train you, even without prior attorney experience.
  • Gain practical experience defending employers and developing your research, writing, and advocacy skills.
  • Enjoy hybrid flexibility while staying connected to colleagues who know your cases and your goals.
  • Bring your potential, whether you are entering practice or transitioning from another legal setting.

Location

Chicago, IL, with a hybrid schedule generally including one to two office days per week after onboarding. You'll spend more time with us initially while getting comfortable with our team and systems. Fully remote work may be considered for the right downstate Illinois candidate, with travel for Chicago and collar county dockets and some in-person attorney meetings.

Note

You must have already passed the Illinois Bar Examination. Candidates awaiting November swearing-in are welcome. No prior attorney or workers' compensation experience is required.

About Us

Confidential Employer.

We are an Illinois law firm focused on defending employers in workers' compensation matters. Our team helps clients navigate claims with practical legal guidance, thoughtful preparation, and clear communication. We're ready to invest in the right attorney's development.

Job Description

  • Help defend workers' compensation claims from case preparation through resolution.
  • Research legal issues, review case materials, and draft legal documents and correspondence.
  • Prepare for hearings and other proceedings, with responsibilities matched to your training and admission status.
  • Work with our attorneys and clients to develop case strategies and keep matters moving.
  • Maintain organized case files, track deadlines, and record billable time accurately.

Qualifications

  • You have passed the Illinois Bar Examination; November admission pending is acceptable.
  • You are interested in employer-side defense and willing to learn.
  • You can meet the applicable office-attendance and travel expectations.
  • Workers' compensation defense and legal billing experience are helpful, not required.
  • Experienced attorneys, including in-house counsel and solo practitioners, are also welcome.

Why You Will Love Working Here

We value what you can grow into, not just the experience already on your résumé. You'll build practical skills through meaningful casework, develop a focused practice, and join a team open to attorneys from different professional backgrounds.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
