Job Specifics
Minimum Qualifications A Bachelor’s degree with strong academic credentials 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, excellent written and verbal communication skills, attention to detail and accuracy, as well as familiarity with Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook, are also required. In addition, the ideal candidate will have experience researching and analyzing documents and possess a demonstrated interest in the law and law enforcement.
Duties Description 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.
The LSA will be involved in CEFC’s cases at all stages and will be an integral member of the investigative team. LSAs serve a critical role in the bureau and perform both investigative and legal support 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.
