    "description": "<p>Pine Tree Legal Assistance</p>\n<p>Family Law and Victim Rights Attorney</p>\n<p>Location: Augusta; Hybrid remote</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>The Family Law/Victim Rights (FLVR) attorney provides high-quality, low-barrier holistic legal services to victims in Maine, based out the Augusta office of PTLA. The attorney provides legal services to victims of domestic and sexual violence and stalking in Kennebec and Somerset Counties. </p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>The attorney will be expected to provide occasional coverage for Family Law and Victim Rights (FLVR) cases in other areas of Maine on an ‘as needed’ basis. The attorney is part of a statewide team specializing in domestic and sexual violence cases, and works closely with staff at local domestic and sexual violence resource centers. </p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>The Family Law/Victim Rights (FLVR) attorney will work under the direction of the Family Law and Victim Rights supervisor and collaboratively within the Unit to provide the highest quality legal representation in appropriate cases. Legal advocacy will range from advice and limited representation to full legal representation in the cases in which representation will have the greatest impact. The project will focus primarily on protection from abuse, family matters, and education cases, although Pine Tree uses a holistic approach to provide comprehensive assistance to families that can include screening and representation or referral for related housing, consumer, benefits, and other common civil legal needs.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>The Family Law/Victim Rights (FLVR) attorney will assess and triage cases in consultation with the FLVR Managing Attorney and team members, provide consultations to partner agency staff in appropriate case-related issues, consult and collaborate with other service providers, law enforcement officers, prosecutors, the Department of Health and Human Services, and others involved in the community response team, and put in place systems to most effectively address the holistic legal needs of survivors of domestic and sexual violence. As appropriate, the attorney may also participate in working groups and coalitions focused on improving the systems that address issues relevant to domestic and sexual violence survivors, and victims of stalking.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>The attorney is also responsible for community engagement and networking to strengthen Pine Tree’s reputation and access to legal services by eligible individuals, consistent with other work and time commitments.  These activities can include the provision of outreach and/or trainings to community agencies and other groups that serve victims of domestic and sexual violence, or survivors of stalking. </p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>The Family Law/Victim Rights (FLVR) attorney will have the opportunity to collaborate and consult with other Pine Tree staff whose expertise covers a range of relevant areas, including public benefits, consumer law, education law, and housing, and provide appropriate referrals internally to other Pine Tree projects. Dependent upon the needs of the local office, and resources available, the attorney may also be responsible for providing direct service in related civil legal matters.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>Frequent travel related to court and other work activities (including trainings) is required and, on occasion, evening or weekend time may also be required to attend trainings. The position may involve some client meetings at locations outside the office, as well as travel to other courts and offices of partner agencies as appropriate to provide low-barrier legal representation.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>The attorney must be admitted to the practice of law in Maine or be eligible to practice under MRCP 11(c) while working at Pine Tree. Previous experience working with survivors of domestic and sexual violence, as well as previous litigation experience, is preferred. Applicant must reside in, or be willing to relocate to, the state of Maine. This is an exempt position under the Fair Labor Standards Act.   </p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>Compensation and Benefits </p>\n<p>The salary range for PTLA attorneys and other exempt staff is currently $71,920 - $108,920 depending on experience.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>In addition, PTLA is proud to offer the following:</p>\n<p>Employer-paid health insurance with a generous HRA contribution, generous health insurance opt-out benefit, employer-paid dental insurance, employer-paid life and disability insurance, and an annual contribution to a 403(b)-retirement plan.
