  • Committed to continuous personal and professional development and high ethical standards.
  • Competitive salary aligned with experience and role seniority
  • Opportunity to work within a nationally recognized, women-owned, diverse legal firm
  • Supportive, inclusive team culture that promotes ongoing learning and mentorship
