Lawyers learn as much from doing as from watching others perform. There is much about the job of a lawyer that can be done by the lawyer themselves—but this would make them inefficient in delivering valuable services to the client. Hence, RSHC lawyers need assistance in the delivery of services to our clients. We value the team approach in delivering these services. The team atmosphere must be fostered by everyone at RSHC equally, lawyers and non‐lawyers; each person is a valuable part of the client service team. This commitment to teamwork allows us to tap multiple fields of experience from our range of practice areas, ensuring our ability to meet each client’s individual needs. Our team approach enables us to analyze a situation from several points of view until we uncover the advantage that makes the difference for our client. This type of excellent collaboration, apprenticeship, training, support, and engagement necessarily takes place face‐to‐face. Further, clients expect – and we deliver – that their lawyers and legal staff will work efficiently and productively across teams, departments, offices, and even jurisdictions. The greater complexity of cases often requires more frequent collaboration and sharing of resources. Therefore, the default position is this position will work from the office unless approved otherwise. The position is in‐person on a full‐time schedule, with flexibility needed to work overtime, as necessary. Pay: $28.19 - $32.45 per hour Work Location: In person
