  • Licensure: Active member in good standing with The Florida Bar (or pending results with a strong academic record).
  • Experience: 0–3 years of experience in civil litigation, judicial clerkships, or intensive law school clinics.
  • Skills: Exceptional legal writing, sharp analytical thinking, and strong interpersonal communication.
  • Drive: A high degree of initiative, strong organizational habits, and a passion for oral advocacy.

What We Offer

  • Real Courtroom Experience: Gain immediate exposure to hearings, depositions, and trials.
  • Compensation: Salary commensurate with experience, plus a benefits package and PTO.
