Candidates must reside in one of the following states: Missouri, Illinois, Florida, Louisiana, California, New York, or Washington D.C. We offer one remote workday per week with four days in the office when not traveling. No relocation package is available for this position.
Note: This role requires an active law license in any U.S. state (Missouri and/or Illinois preferred) and professional-level fluency in Spanish.
