Duties Description The Office of the New York State Attorney General’s (OAG) Criminal Enforcement and Financial Crimes Bureau (CEFC) 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, detectives 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.

We offer a comprehensive New York State benefits package, including paid leave, health, dental, vision and retirement benefits, and family-friendly policies.
