• Research legal issues on Westlaw or Lexis and write memos
• Review contracts, wills, deeds or other transactional documents, depending on practice area
• Negotiate settlements with opposing counsel and adjusters
• Draft pleadings, motions, briefs and discovery

You'll need:

• 5+ years of practice experience in the relevant area of law
• Strong legal research and writing skills
• Deposition and motion practice experience
• Comfortable with clients, opposing counsel and judges
