New Haven Legal Assistance Association Seeks Staff Attorney to join our Employment Unit
The staff attorney will provide legal assistance to individuals facing a range of employment-related issues such as wage theft, workplace discrimination, sick, family, and medical leave, unemployment insurance, and labor trafficking. Because immigrant workers are particularly vulnerable to exploitation, this staff attorney would work in close collaboration with our Immigration Law Unit to provide support with applications for U- or T-visas.
New Haven Legal Assistance Association (NHLAA) is a legal aid organization. The social worker will be an integral part of the work, working closely with NHLAA staff in the juvenile matters unit, which provides culturally competent services to low-income children and youth in child protection proceedings and related legal matters.
