NMLA staff attorney position available at Native American Program in Santa Ana<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chris Vigil will leave the Native American Program at New Mexico Legal Aid next month to accept a position working on water rights adjudications with the New Mexico Administrative Office of the Courts. It’s a great opportunity for Chris, but a loss for NMLA. We very much appreciate the great work Chris has done for our clients, and we wish him much success in his new position.<\/p>\n

Chris’s decision means that NMLA is now seeking a staff attorney to join the Native American Program in Santa Ana<\/strong>.

The Native American Program does creative, challenging and complex work in a context of rich cultures and diverse client communities. We are looking for highly motivated candidates who are passionate and strongly committed to helping NMLA better serve our Native American communities, including development of effective team strategies to handle complex advocacy and extended representation cases.<\/p>\n

Requirements<\/strong>:\u00a0 Experience with Native American legal issues and communities, especially New Mexico tribal and Pueblo communities, will be highly preferred. At least two years’ experience in handling criminal defense cases, especially those arising in tribal or Pueblo courts, will be highly preferred. Must be willing to travel. Candidates must possess excellent written and oral communication skills, the ability to manage multiple tasks, and ability to manage a significant caseload and build collaborative relationships within the staff and the community.\u00a0 Proficiency in relevant Native American languages is a plus.<\/p>\n

Send a current resume and a letter of interest explaining what you would like to accomplish if you are selected for this position to:\u00a0 jobs@nmlegalaid.org<\/a><\/p>\n

Salary:\u00a0 DOE, NMLA is an EEO Employer.<\/p>\n
