A well-established financial services litigation firm is seeking a Massachusetts-licensed attorney to manage bank garnishments, subpoenas, and legal orders for its banking clients. The role begins as a part-time contract engagement (approximately 10 hours per week REMOTE) with volume expected to scale, and a path to permanent hire for the right attorney. Work is primarily remote, with court appearances handled virtually in most instances. This is a strong fit for an attorney who wants meaningful, self-directed work on a flexible schedule: a solo practitioner adding a steady engagement, an attorney returning to practice, or an experienced professional seeking part-time work with growth potential.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Review, analyze, and respond to legal orders served on banking clients, including garnishments, attachments, levies, subpoenas, temporary restraining orders, and search and seizure warrants (the full landscape spans roughly 300 legal order types).
Appear in court as needed, primarily by virtual appearance with occasional in-person appearances in Massachusetts.
Manage response deadlines with urgency and precision; legal orders are time-sensitive and errors carry compliance consequences for the client.
Work independently, owning matters end to end with minimal supervision, and escalate judgment calls appropriately.
Report directly to the supervising partner, with clear communication on volume, status, and capacity.
QUALIFICATIONS
Required: Active membership in good standing with the Massachusetts Bar.
Required: Strong analytical skills and a demonstrated sense of urgency; ability to triage and prioritize time-sensitive orders.
Required: Self-directed ownership mindset. This role rewards accountability and follow-through over years of experience.
Preferred: Experience with legal order processing, creditors' rights, banking operations, or financial services litigation.
Preferred: Comfort with virtual court platforms and electronic filing systems.
ENGAGEMENT STRUCTURE
Temp-to-hire: Begin on a contract basis through Ascension Global Staffing & Executive Search, with conversion to direct hire based on performance.
Hours: Approximately 10 hours per week to start, scaling with bank case volume.
Location: Primarily remote; occasional in-person court appearances in Massachusetts.
Compensation: Competitive hourly rate, commensurate with experience.
