Mca Debt Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Before you invest too much time reading this post, let's cover the prerequisites upfront: we are looking for a paralegal with a strong understanding of and meaningful experience in:

• NY civil litigation (commercial debt and MCA cases preferred)
• judgment enforcement and collections
• settlement negotiations

This is not an entry level position. Also (at the risk of stating the obvious), please only apply if you genuinely want to do this type of work, i.e. legal collections, settlement negotiations, reviewing/drafting settlement papers, monitoring settlements, etc.

If you're still reading and intrigued at the prospect of a career at David Fogel P.C. and you are awesome (defined as: you get along well with others, you take ownership of your work, you're genuinely happy to help, and you're someone who can be counted on), then know this: it is our pledge to ensure that you don’t dread coming into work every day. Heck, you'll probably miss coming into the office on the weekends (ok, ok, if you really want to come in on the weekends, we'll see what we can do). Our goal is to expand our growing team with only awesome people.

As a member of our Settlement & Resolutions team, you will be entrusted with handling negotiating, finalizing and monitoring settlements. This requires significant client contact; interfacing with adversaries and opposing counsel to professionally and effectively negotiate and facilitate settlements; communicating with court representatives and others. Therefore, if you're not comfortable with and confident in having these interactions everyday, then this position would probably not be a good fit for you.

The ideal candidate must:

• have a strong understanding of the legal process in collections matters
• be capable of reviewing, understanding and summarizing a legal file
• be organized
• be detail-oriented
• have excellent communication skills (verbal and written)
• be a self-starter and capable of independently handling a caseload.

A closing note: our firm is comprised of incredibly hardworking and awesome individuals; we are interested in only candidates who fit that description (you might want to read our definition of awesome again).

Don't forget to read the fine print before you click Apply:

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills required - you'll be expected to independently draft emails/letters and speak effectively on the phone and collaborate with colleagues
• Email management and organization required - keeping on top of a busy inbox and task list, and maintaining documents in electronic filing systems will be critical for success
• Proficiency in Google Workspace, Word, Excel - you don't need to be an expert, but you need to know more than just the basics
• 1+ years as a paralegal with NY civil/commercial litigation/collections experience including NYSCEF filing required – we're happy to train on the specifics but we need you to have a strong knowledgebase
• Desire and demonstrated ability to crush it. Every. Single. Day. required – energized and upbeat is the vibe we're going for (show us how you've killed it in past experiences)
• Organization and neatness required – it’s the only way to stay on top of your game
• Flexibility and ability to work alone and with others required – we got a lot to do, so you need to be able to be productive on your own and step up as a team player as needed
• Great computer (PC) skills required – you can be a Mac expert but you need to know the difference between left click and right click
• Enjoy a good slice of pizza preferred – this should speak for itself
• Sense of humor can't hurt – after all, we’re spending a lot of time together

Bonus: the hired candidate will not only receive competitive compensation and benefits but will also get bragging rights that they work at an awesome place with awesome people (value: priceless).

A final closing thought: if you think you'd be a good fit for this position, let us know why... ya know, in that cover letter no one likes to write.
