Job Description

  • Handle construction and commercial litigation matters under the direction of senior attorneys.
  • Work on pre-litigation construction lien claims and payment bond claims.
  • Review client issues, analyze legal options, and help determine the best course of action.
  • Conduct legal research and prepare for hearings, proceedings, negotiations, and case strategy discussions.
  • Draft pleadings, motions, briefs, affidavits, correspondence, settlement agreements, contracts, and other legal documents.
  • Attend hearings, mediations, depositions, and other legal proceedings as needed.
  • Communicate effectively with clients, senior attorneys, paralegals, staff, opposing counsel, and courts.

Qualifications

  • Ability to work closely with senior attorneys while managing meaningful litigation responsibilities.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to work effectively with clients, attorneys, paralegals, and staff.

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.
