Dan Abrams has recently launched, LawNewz.com, the must read site on the latest big legal stories and criminal trials of the day. We currently have a small team of ambitious, energetic, news hounds and legal experts editing, analyzing and covering the most talked about stories of the day — from the legal issues in the 2016 campaign to the highest profile trials.
We are now looking for one more LawNewz writer/editor to add to our team. In addition to editing and covering news stories, you would be asked to write opinion pieces using any and all of the tools of digital storytelling: words, video, pictures, social interactions, you name it. Because it’s a new site, you would also be responsible for helping develop the voice of the site, which will be promoted by the company’s currently existing audience of more than 12 million monthly unique visitors.
If you think you have what it takes and want to impact the news cycle, then we want to talk to you!
Requirements:
– 2 years of newsroom or blog experience
– Familiarity with WordPress
– A serious passion for the world of law and crime, including an understanding of the judicial system and how to obtain publicly available legal documents
– Legal background a major plus
