Part-Time Remote Of Counsel Role (15 hours/week)
Who We Are
The Dugger Law Firm, PLLC is a small, mission-driven, exclusively plaintiff-side employment firm that represents New York City employees in discrimination, retaliation, and wage-and-hour cases. We combine the use of traditional civil-rights laws with under-utilized New York City discrimination law to help improve the experience of being an employee in New York City.
What You’ll Do
Drafting and revising long form persuasive demand letters and administrative charges
Line edit and cite-check pre-litigation work and briefs for clarity and accuracy
Work set weekly schedule to help drive firm drafting forward (i.e., schedule of Monday and Tuesday 9:00 am to 5:00 pm with 30-minute lunch break or 10:00 am to 3:00 pm Monday to Wednesday)
The work is substantive but narrow in scope—perfect for an experienced employment attorney who enjoys the craft of writing about employment law claims more than endless discovery battle and/or an attorney seeking better work-life balance.
What You Bring
Current admission to the New York bar
Experience in employment discrimination law (plaintiff-side or defense-side)
Strong writing skills and attention to detail
Sharp research and analytical skills
Reliability, self-direction, and excellent time management (the role is fully remote)
Professional curiosity—an interest in creative or impact-oriented litigation
Familiarity with new legal-AI tools is strongly preferred and a commitment to learning new AI technologies is required
An ability to consistently move drafting forward each week
Compensation & Benefits
$50,000 annual salary
Three weeks PTO first year; four weeks thereafter
401(k) matching

*Dedicated work hours are not required to coincide with Eastern Time workday
