The Office of the New York State Attorney General is seeking a talented candidate for the position of Legal Support Analyst (LSA) in the Office of Special Investigation (OSI) in New York City. OSI's members investigate incidents throughout the state in which a police officer or a peace officer (including a corrections officer) has caused the death of a person. If warranted, OSI's attorneys seek charges in connection with the incident and prosecute any resulting indictment. The LSA position provides a unique and exciting opportunity to join a team of experienced felony and homicide prosecutors, legal support staff, and detective investigators who work together to enhance transparency and strengthen public trust in the criminal justice system. The LSA reports to the Supervising Legal Support Analyst.

LSAs serve a critical role in the bureau, performing investigative and legal support functions. In the course of OSI's investigations, the key responsibilities of an LSA will include:

• Reviewing and analyzing extensive documents and evidence, including medical records
• Reviewing, analyzing, and preparing police officers' body-worn camera footage and surveillance video for internal case use and public release (Please note: because OSI's cases involve homicide investigations, videos may contain audio and visual content that some may find disturbing)
• Being adept and creative in the use of search engines and social media
• Organizing case files and providing legal and office support
• Drafting internal memos and preparing published reports
• Processing and organizing documents to be produced for discovery
• Preparing court exhibits for trial, including video exhibits
• Aiding attorneys in court proceedings

Minimum Qualifications A bachelor's degree is required for the position. Additionally, the individual selected for the LSA position must have excellent organizational, time management and multitasking skills. The ability to analyze and synthesize large amounts of information, strong written and verbal communication skills, attention to detail and accuracy, as well as proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, and Outlook are also required. Familiarity with video editing software is beneficial but not required; comfort working with video technology or a willingness to learn is required. The ideal candidate must possess a demonstrated interest in the law and law enforcement. Finally, applicants who are available to work in this position for at least two (2) years are preferred.

Additional Comments The annual salary for this position is $65,569 plus $4,150 in location pay. As an employee of OAG, you will join a team of dedicated individuals who work to serve the people of our state through a wide variety of occupations.
