This hybrid role is ideal for an early-career attorney or legal professional interested in gaining hands-on experience with government contracts, contract administration, legal research, document preparation, client matters, and court-related support.

The successful candidate should possess strong research and writing skills, excellent professional judgment, and the ability to manage multiple matters and deadlines simultaneously.

Key Responsibilities

• Review government solicitations, RFPs, RFIs, Sources Sought notices, contracts, amendments, and related documents.
• Assist with government proposal preparation, contract compliance, subcontractor and teaming documentation, and contract administration.
• Research federal, state, and local regulations and contractual requirements.
• Draft and review business correspondence, agreements, memoranda, demand letters, contract documents, and other professional materials.
• Assist with rideshare-driver matters involving account deactivation and reactivation disputes.
• Review client intake forms, supporting documentation, correspondence, screenshots, and other case materials.
• Conduct legal and procedural research related to client matters and applicable jurisdictions.
• Assist with preparation and review of appropriate court documents under attorney supervision or within the scope permitted by applicable law.
• Track court dates, filing deadlines, contractual deadlines, client communications, and outstanding documentation.
• Communicate professionally with clients regarding case status, documentation requirements, and administrative next steps.
• When appropriately licensed and authorized, represent or accompany clients at court proceedings as assigned.
• Maintain organized electronic files and protect confidential and sensitive information.
• Work closely with management and other team members on government-contracting and client-support projects.

Qualifications

Candidates should have a J.D. from an accredited law school or comparable legal/contract experience. Recent law school graduates and early-career attorneys are encouraged to apply. Admission to a state bar is preferred, and candidates should clearly identify the jurisdiction(s) in which they are currently licensed.

The ideal candidate will have excellent legal research, analytical, writing, proofreading, and communication skills; strong attention to detail; the ability to independently manage deadlines; and proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, Adobe Acrobat, and online research platforms. Familiarity with SAM.gov, federal acquisition, government contracting, small claims/civil court procedures, rideshare/gig-economy matters, or contract administration is a plus.

Ideal Candidate

We are looking for someone who is dependable, professional, resourceful, and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where assignments may shift between government-contracting projects and individual client matters. The candidate should know when an issue requires additional legal research, attorney review, or escalation rather than making assumptions.
