· Perform discovery of various electronically stored data and hard copies of information in preparation for litigation.
· Review and analyze newly assigned and existing matters in order to provide legal representation until the matter is concluded.
· Draft all necessary documents to provide legal representation to clients and route them through the appropriate office procedures.
· Perform necessary legal research and analysis of the law on complex regulatory issues.
· Draft briefs and pleadings for submission to a supervising lawyer in the firm using various methods to include libraries and computer data systems.
· Formulate and submit well-founded legal opinions to clients.
· Communicate regularly with clients regarding the status of their matter.

· Knowledge of SCC or comparable regulatory laws and practice requirements in order to perform substantive legal function in client matters.
· Ability to focus and pay close attention to detail for extended periods of time.
· Analytical skills necessary to conduct complex and detailed analyses of state and federal laws, regulations, and administrative guidance.
· Interpersonal skills necessary to communicate effectively, whether by e-mail, telephone, video call or in-person with a diverse group of clients, attorneys, staff and agency personnel to convey information and legal argument with the requisite courtesy, advocacy and tact.
· Ability to travel to private and public buildings locally and statewide via private or public conveyance to attend to client needs on legal matters.
· The position will require more than 40 hours per week to perform the essential duties of the position.
