• Work closely with a Senior Arbitration Attorney to prepare for and attend final arbitration hearings (i.e., trials).
• For senior-level candidates: independently lead arbitration hearings and trials, including witness examination, opening/closing statements, and overall case strategy.
• Communicate effectively with clients, opposing counsel, arbitrators, and internal litigation teams.
• Maintain an organized caseload and contribute to an efficient, collaborative work environment.

• 3-5 years of civil litigation experiencerequired.
• Experience with arbitration hearings, evidentiary presentation, or employment-related disputes is highly desirable.
• Strong legal writing, research, and oral advocacy skills.
