What are the responsibilities and job description for the Of-Counsel Attorney position at Lansing Legal Group, PLLC?
Perhaps you are tired of billable targets and are ready to work on your own time and initiative.

Maybe you are a young lawyer who is ready to bet on themselves.
Lansing Legal Group, PLLC is searching for an “of-counsel” attorney with a book of business to work with its growing practice. We are looking for a candidate with 3 years of practice experience.
