VA Agency Paralegal

Many law firms are not pleasant places to work. Short-tempered bosses who don’t want to hear your ideas, giving your all at the cost of your own health and family time, limited room for growth or advancement, the list goes on.

At ACS, we are trying to change the way law is practiced. The work we do for our veteran and survivor clients is important. It is critically important to us to provide caring, effective and efficient representation to disabled veterans and their survivors nationwide.

We seek to work with people intrinsically motivated to help us create a better career experience - a place where we all can work hard, have fun, and enjoy life after work.

Currently, we are looking for help creating order from disarray; a person who is confident but not cocky; autonomous but recognizes the need to take direction and defer to attorney knowledge and supervision. In short, someone seeking to be fully integrated in finding a solution to the near impenetrable chaos created by the VA Claims process. Ideally, we will find a person who already understands the ins and outs of claim file organization, finds enjoyment in forging new solutions to old problems, and doesn’t mind working in the trenches to achieve harmony.

We are currently hiring a full-time experienced VA Agency Paralegal.
