The Criminal Enforcement and Financial Crimes Bureau of the New York State Office of the Attorney General (OAG) is seeking talented candidates for the position of Legal Support Analyst (LSA) in the New York City office. LSAs work closely with Assistant Attorneys General, investigators, and forensic auditors to investigate and prosecute complex financial schemes and white-collar crimes, including securities and investment fraud, internet-based fraud schemes, insurance and public benefits fraud, and tax crimes.
LSAs serve a critical role in the bureau and perform both investigative and paralegal functions. Specifically, LSAs are responsible for conducting investigative assignments such as drafting subpoenas, reviewing documents, searching commercial and law enforcement databases, analyzing phone and bank records, and monitoring electronic surveillance. In addition, LSAs perform legal support tasks, such as processing documents to be turned over during discovery, preparing demonstrative exhibits, aiding Assistant Attorneys General in court proceedings, and testifying in the grand jury and at trial. Please note that this is not an attorney position and LSAs do not typically conduct legal research. This is a full-time position and we are seeking candidates to fill the opening immediately.
This is an entry-level position. Candidates must possess a Bachelor's degree by the time of appointment. Strong time-management, writing, and verbal communication skills are also required. The best-qualified candidates will exhibit a strong academic record and a demonstrated interest in law or law enforcement.
OAG employees serve more than 19.85 million state residents through a wide variety of occupations. We offer a comprehensive New York State benefits package, including paid leave, health, dental, vision and retirement benefits, and family-friendly policies. As an employee of the OAG, you will join a team of dedicated individuals who work to serve the people of our State.
