Associate Editor – Super Lawyers
We are looking for an Associate Editor to join our editorial team to create Super Lawyers magazines spotlighting the work of the country’s most prominent lawyers.

Job Description
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 that also include feature stories and shorter articles about interesting and noteworthy local attorneys. The editorial team is responsible for creating the stories for these annual publications. The Associate Editor will fact‑check and copy‑edit stories, write articles, research and develop new story ideas, and eventually become the editor of several small publications focused on the lives, careers and cases of lawyers. This role requires a self‑starter with strong time‑management skills.

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 have built a long‑standing reputation for quality, credibility, and thoughtful profile writing, earning more than 100 professional journalism awards in the last decade.
