Superior Court Posts Research Attorney Position

The Superior Court has posted an opening for a Research Attorney position. Among other duties, a Research Attorney aids the Justices of the Superior Court by researching legal issues and preparing draft decisions on civil, criminal, and administrative matters. Research Attorneys typically handle more complex and difficult cases than law clerks and, unlike law clerks, are not limited to a yearly term. Research Attorneys may assist in the training, administration, and oversight of  law clerks, law fellows, and interns. Research Attorneys must be able to travel to Superior Court Courthouses throughout the Commonwealth.

Minimum requirements include graduation from an accredited law school and membership in the Massachusetts Bar. Prior judicial clerkship experience preferred, particularly as a Superior Court Law Clerk. For full details, see the official Job Posting at:
