The Full Time Entry Level Associate Attorney is a licensed legal professional responsible for legal research, drafting, and client interaction, working directly under attorneys. In contrast, a Paralegal provides support tasks such as document preparation and case organization without requiring a law license. While both roles are essential in legal settings, the associate attorney holds more advanced responsibilities and credentials, making them distinct in career progression and scope of work.

Responsibilities:
  • Conducting client intake, including completion of all necessary forms for clients.
  • Serving clients who may need various legal assistance, including tax-foreclosure-prevention counseling, mortgage-foreclosure-prevention counseling, landlord-tenant and eviction-prevention assistance, and land-contract counseling.
  • Providing court representation, which may include physical and remote appearances in state and federal courts and related administrative proceedings, in addition to preparing pleadings.

  • Salary is commensurate with experience. UCHC offers generous medical benefits and time off.
  • Schedule: 8:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m. or 9 a.m.–5 p.m. Monday–Friday, though some additional time may be required, depending on court filings.
  • Expected start date: as soon as possible.
