Job description

Conflicts Attorney
Work Arrangement: This is a full-time, fully remote position. Candidates may be based in any U.S. location with an existing Fisher Phillips office and must be willing to work West Coast business hours.
Fisher Phillips, a premier international labor and employment law firm, is seeking an experienced Conflicts Attorney to join our New Business Intake team. This role is ideally suited for candidates with direct law-firm conflicts experience-those who regularly analyze conflict reports, apply ethical rules, coordinate resolutions, and collaborate with Risk Management, General Counsel, or Intake teams.
In this high-impact position, you will be responsible for evaluating and resolving potential conflicts involving new business, lateral hires, and RFPs. You'll work closely with the General Counsel's Office and attorneys across the firm, making informed decisions that directly protect the firm and its clients.
We're looking for a detail-driven conflicts professional with 2+ years of hands-on conflicts analysis in a law firm environment (such as Conflicts Attorney, Conflicts Analyst, Risk Management Attorney, or Ethics/Professional Responsibility role). Candidates without prior conflicts experience will not be considered for this position.
If you have a strong command of conflicts rules, experience with conflicts databases, and a passion for safeguarding ethical compliance, we encourage you to apply.
Please note: This role is not an entry point into practice. Applicants must have substantive conflicts or law-firm risk-management experience.
Key Responsibilities
  • Analyze complex conflict reports and exercise independent judgment to identify potential conflict of interest issues with new business, legal hires, and requests for proposal.
  • Conduct research to gather information or clarification on potential issues, including the appropriate jurisdictional conflict and/or ethical rules and opinions to assist in determining specific conflict resolution strategies.
  • Collaborate with attorneys, paralegals, and support staff to gather necessary information for conflict analysis.
  • Take initiative to analyze and resolve conflicts independently.
  • Prepare clear and concise communications to attorneys, identifying all potential issues found in the conflict report in order to provide recommendations to attorneys and facilitate conflict resolution.
  • Request and maintain all necessary supporting documentation to clear actual or potential conflict issues.
  • Draft consents and conflicts waivers, ensuring compliance with legal and ethical standards.
  • Provide assistance in managing client guidelines related to conflicts of interest, confidentiality, and ethical obligations.
  • Prepare and implement ethical walls.
  • Assist in developing and implementing conflicts policies and procedures.
  • Provide guidance to New Business Intake Analysts with the goal of ensuring accuracy and consistency in preparation and analysis of conflict reports.
  • Assist in training of New Business Intake staff and Firm administrative staff.
  • Maintain knowledge of trends and developments involving legal and ethical rules related to conflicts of interest, confidentiality, and professional responsibility.
  • Coordinate with the conflicts team to update and maintain the conflicts database and ensure accurate conflict reporting.
  • Respond promptly to conflicts-related inquiries from attorneys and staff.
  • Maintain strict confidentiality and handle sensitive information with the utmost discretion.

Qualifications
  • Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from an accredited law school.
  • Active membership in good standing with the bar association of the relevant jurisdiction.
  • Minimum of 2 years of hands-on conflicts experience in a law firm environment (e.g., Conflicts Attorney, Conflicts Analyst, Risk Management Attorney, or Professional Responsibility role).
  • In-depth knowledge of conflicts of interest rules, legal ethics, and professional responsibility.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to assess complex legal scenarios.
  • Excellent attention to detail and exceptional organizational skills.
  • Outstanding written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to handle multiple priorities and work under tight deadlines.
  • Proficiency in using Intapp Open and Intapp Walls software and other relevant legal technology tools.
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently as well as collaboratively in a team-oriented environment.
  • High level of professionalism, integrity, and ethical conduct.
