PART-TIME ATTORNEY NEEDED (REMOTE POSITION)

Vacancy expired!

General practice law firm seeks an Independent Contractor attorney for a part-time, remote work position.

Priority will be given to those attorneys with Family Law and/or Civil Litigation experience, but we're also looking for attorneys that handle other areas of law such as: Landlord/Tenant Law, Bankruptcy, Real Estate (i.e., Property and/or HOA disputes as well as Contractor disputes), Employment Law, Estate Planning, Personal Injury, Immigration, Securities Law, Intellectual Property, Cyber Law, Conservatorships/Guardianships, Non-Profit Law, etc.

You will be handling files from start to finish including through trial, if applicable. In addition to providing you with work, we offer support by way of administrative assistance, and we can assign other attorneys and/or paralegals/law clerks to assist you with your cases, if needed. We also conduct periodic case list reviews with you to make sure cases are moving along and to see if you need any further assistance.

Tasks include, but aren't limited to, client intake (i.e, evaluating potential cases on a regular basis and quoting fees to potential clients (primarily over the phone, but also via email (occasional "in person" consultations will not be taking place until the pandemic is over)), as well as handling cases through completion. Our staff handles everything else for you (i.e., the admin stuff like collecting payment from clients, handling documents and filings, managing your calendar for you, etc.). We just want you to handle the initial consultation, quote legal fees when necessary and work on cases from start to finish. Leave the administrative stuff to us. :)

You must be very personable, reliable, know how to manage your time efficiently, and know how to work independently. We enjoy working together as a team, so a sense of humor is a plus. ;) Attorneys that have been with us for quite some time, and who are very successful with us, manage their time well and are able to function independently, efficiently and they're able to handle their caseload from start to finish without micromanagement. This is a work/life balance type of position. You will only work on cases you want to handle. You can stop receiving new matters to work on at any time.

Expectation is roughly 15-20 hours of work a week depending on the areas of law you handle and how many cases you'd like to take on. More or less work is available depending on your specific needs. If you don't have around 15-20 hours a week or so available, or if you do not have experience handling cases from start to finish and/or if you're afraid to quote legal fees to potential clients, please do not apply.

This is a remote only position. You can work from home, your own office, or onsite at one of our locations depending on office/room availability. Working from home and/or your own office is preferred as long as it's in a professional environment (i.e. no dogs barking, kids playing or any other substantial noise in the background).

Please email your resume or CV for consideration. This is an "attorney only" position. Please do not apply if you're not a current California attorney in good standing with the California Bar.

Thank you for your time and consideration. If you believe you're the right candidate for this position, then we look forward to hearing from you. :)
