About the role

Hawthorne Lane seeks a temporary Paralegal in Washington, DC to support legislative and regulatory research, client communications, PAC administration, and filings at federal, state, and local levels. You will monitor developments, prepare materials, and manage time-sensitive priorities while collaborating with clients and colleagues in a fast-paced, policy-focused environment. This three-month assignment offers hybrid work flexibility.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
