About the Role
The Long-Form Content Creator will research, outline, write, and revise in-depth legal content involving litigations and other activities to highlight the firm and its accomplishments. You will translate complex legal topics into clear, audience-focused content while aligning with SEO strategy, editorial standards, and regulatory considerations for legal marketing.

• Edit and proofread content for clarity, tone, grammar, and accuracy.
• Maintain an editorial calendar, meet deadlines, and incorporate feedback from attorneys and marketing leads.

  • Competitive pay and performance based annual bonus.

  • Year End Bonus (discretionary)

Requirements
• Excellent research skills and ability to interpret legal topics and synthesize information for non-lawyer audiences.
• Strong command of grammar, tone, and storytelling for professional services marketing.
• Familiarity with SEO best practices and content management systems (e.g., WordPress).
• Ability to work independently, manage multiple projects, and meet deadlines.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Prior experience working with law firms, attorneys, or in legal publishing.
• Basic understanding of legal terminology and citation conventions.
• Experience with content briefs, keyword research tools, and analytics.
