About The Position

We are looking for an Associate Editor to join our editorial team to help create Super Lawyers magazines spotlighting the work of the country’s most prominent lawyers. Super Lawyers is a publication and service with a patented attorney rating system. We generate lists of the top 5% of attorneys in different areas of the country. These lists are published in yearly, regional magazines, which also include feature stories and shorter articles about interesting and noteworthy local attorneys. The Super Lawyers editorial team is responsible for creating the stories for these annual publications. We’re looking for a journalist with strong writing, interviewing, copy-editing and fact-checking skills. No legal background necessary. This Associate Editor will immediately take on fact-checking and copy-editing responsibilities and will eventually become the editor of several small publications that focus on the lives, careers and cases of lawyers. Should be a self-starter with strong time-management skills. For more than 25 years, Super Lawyers has been a trusted name in magazine reporting, attorney ratings, and feature profiles within the legal profession. With a national readership of hundreds of thousands and a presence in every state, our publications are known for strong storytelling, clear writing, and high editorial standards. Our print magazines and related editorial products have built a long-standing reputation for quality, credibility, and thoughtful profile writing. That work continues to earn recognition, including more than 100 professional journalism awards in the last 10 years. For editorial candidates, Super Lawyers offers the chance to contribute to an established, award-winning print publication with a distinct voice, a substantial archive, and a long history of producing polished editorial work.
