Job Description
Seeking Florida-barred attorney in the Jacksonville/Duval County area to serve as counsel of record for a corporation in an active state court case. Corporation cannot appear pro se and needs licensed counsel on the record. The case is already underway.
Scope: Review and proofread client-drafted filings for compliance with Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and Duval County local rules, file with the court, and make appearances if needed. Must be familiar with local court rules and filing procedures. Client handles all substantive drafting, strategy, and case management.
Case mainly involves a contract dispute and fraud against a federal contractor. This is a minor component of a high-stakes, integrated constellation of cases based in Washington, D.C. — congressional and White House adjacent. This is ideal for a solo practitioner or young attorney seeking state court litigation experience with minimal time commitment and predictable income.
The client has testified before Congress, published nationally on these issues, and has engaged directly with senior agency leadership including the Acting FEMA Administrator. All substantive work is handled by the client. This is a support role — reliable filing, proofreading, and procedural compliance only.
Flat monthly retainer or per-filing fee preferred. No hourly billing.
