About the role

Jenner & Block LLP in Chicago seeks a Legal Practice Assistant to support several lawyers with a variety of administrative duties. This non-exempt role runs 8:30am to 5:00pm (CT), Monday through Friday, with additional hours as needed. You will handle time entry, billing coordination, travel and meeting logistics, document preparation, file management, and client correspondence, while maintaining confidentiality and delivering high-quality service.

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.
