The Managing Attorney’s Office (MAO) at Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP supports and assists the firm’s practice groups – primarily the Litigation Group and the Restructuring Group – with court-related matters. The MAO’s primary responsibilities include, but are not limited to, reviewing litigation papers for compliance with court rules, filing and serving all litigation papers, monitoring pending court cases, tracking litigation deadlines, researching and retrieving court dockets/documents/public records, and providing guidance on court rules and procedures.
The Senior Docket Clerk is a position for an experienced candidate, with room for additional professional growth and departmental development. The team member will play an integral role in providing broad, responsive, and efficient case management support to the firm’s California attorneys. The Senior Docket Clerk will be resident in the Palo Alto office with as-needed travel to San Francisco. While generally managing California litigation, the Senior Docket Clerk will report directly to the NY Managing Attorney and will work collaboratively with MAO personnel from both NY and DC. This position will be a hybrid in-office/remote work position, at least 3 days per week in-office and up to 2 days per week working remotely, with the expectation that travel to the office or local courthouses on remote work days may be required, sometimes on short notice.
The ideal candidate will have 5 or more years of relevant law firm or court experience, having worked in a litigation calendaring and docketing capacity with emphasis on federal courts (N.D. Cal., C.D. Cal., Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals) and California state courts (particularly Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Mateo, and Santa Clara Superior Courts). This role requires someone who is comfortable in a fast-paced environment and agile at juggling multiple priorities. Our preferred applicant will have extensive experience working on multi-party, complex litigation in both state and federal trial and appeals courts and will have superior organizational and time management skills, with problem-solving dexterity. The prospective Senior Docket Clerk will have a professional demeanor, the ability to communicate effectively with personnel of all levels, and a record of delivering exceptional client service.
The base salary for this position is $95,000-$105,000. Actual pay is determined based on a number of job-related factors, including skills, education, training, credentials, experience, scope and complexity of role responsibilities, geographic location, and performance.
