Job description

Applicants are highly encouraged to submit a cover letter. Applicants must reside in California, but the city does not matter.

About Our Law Firm:

The Law Office of Abtin Amir, PC is a boutique law firm specializing in the defense of major domestic and international auto companies (Porsche, Rolls-Royce, and BMW) in lawsuits involving claims under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, as well as fraud, breach of warranty, violations of the Consumer Legal Remedies Act, and other statutes. The firm represents luxury vehicle brands in state and federal court, as well as in alternative dispute settings such as arbitration and mediation. The firm occasionally handles matters in other areas of law, such as criminal defense, contract, and intellectual property. In the near future, the firm may expand into other areas of law.

The work environment at the firm is very relaxed, informal, and team-oriented. Attorneys and support staff alike are encouraged to share their thoughts and to be themselves. However, everyone is expected to demonstrate professionalism where it counts, and exceptional work product and attention to detail is paramount.

Expected Work Hours and Compensation:

~30 hours per week at $20-25 per hour, amounting to an annual salary of $28,800 - $36,000 per year, plus bonuses and full benefits package. Not all 30 hours per week will require active work, as there will be times when you would just have to keep an eye out for incoming emails with assignments if there is nothing to work on.

Compensation also includes an automatic employer contribution of an additional 3% of the base salary to your 401k, plus bonuses, perks, and non-linear raises throughout the year. Compensation for this position will start at a competitive rate depending on experience, and will ramp up quickly based on performance. Salary increases may occur as early as three months after starting, depending on rate of skill progression and performance.

Additional benefits include: health insurance through Anthem Blue Cross (including premium PPO option), dental insurance, vision insurance, retirement plan with 401(k) employer contribution of 3% salary on top of salary regardless of whether employee contributes, very flexible work schedule, paid time off, workplace equipment provided or subsidized by the firm, and substantial professional development, training, and guidance.

Ideal Candidate:

We are looking for a very detail-oriented and enthusiastic team member with solid communication skills who can handle multiple tasks simultaneously while staying organized. The candidate must have a strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office software, cloud storage such as OneDrive, ability to learn PDF software such as Kofax Power PDF or Adobe Acrobat, and electronic file organization skills. Knowledge of e-filing in state and federal court is a big plus, but not required.

Initially, the candidate's primary tasks will include reaching out to dealerships via email and phone to request documentation, keeping track of requests and following up, and summarizing records received.

The candidate will also receive training on how to file documents with state and federal courts, and will communicate with our automotive clients regarding contracts and records.

Candidates who aspire to learn and do more will be encouraged to do so.
