Privacy Counseling Attorney
Zwillgen 3.7
Counselor internship job in Washington, DC
We are a boutique (50 lawyer) internet and technology law firm based in Washington, D.C., with a wealth of high-tech clients ranging from early-stage start-ups to household names in the tech industry. We are seeking an experienced data privacy attorney to join our team.
This is a unique opportunity to join a growing practice and work on cutting edge issues for very interesting clients, most of whom provide products or services in the areas of technology, data, entertainment, online services, gaming, and publishing.
If you built your practice at a big firm, you might work with similar clients but most likely you would spend most of your time helping your clients procure these companies' services. At ZwillGen, you'll have the opportunity to learn about these companies from the sell side by partnering with them to help shape some of today's most innovative new businesses, and our lower billing rates allow us to do more day‑to‑day counseling work.
The position requires a highly motivated, forward‑thinking individual with the ability to work collaboratively as part of a team in a fast‑paced legal environment. Although we achieve national accolades (e.g., Law360's recent Practice Groups of the Year for Privacy and Consumer Protection), we're not BigLaw: we want attorneys who share our creative and efficient team‑oriented approach to clients' needs, and who can serve as a valued strategic counselor - not simply bill hours.
Career Development
We all support each other's practices, and that includes supporting yours. You don't need to languish for years without real client contact and responsibility; if you provide high‑quality client service, you are part of the client relationship. We're all responsible for nurturing and supporting our relationship with existing clients, and if bringing in new ones is your thing, we'll support you in that endeavor as well. We have deep expertise in our practice areas, a great reputation, and competitive rates, so it's not too difficult.
Essential Job Functions
US privacy compliance, including compliance with state comprehensive privacy laws and FTC guidance and enforcement.
Analysis and implementation of US sale, share, and targeted advertising choice obligations, and good understanding of AdTech;
Experience advising on compliance with respect to one or more of the following: children's privacy, international privacy laws, and/or information security.
Evaluating contracts for data privacy terms
Qualifications
7+ years of experience in data privacy compliance
Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, with the ability to assess risk and provide strategic legal guidance.
Excellent written and oral communication skills with the ability to think strategically and assess risk.
Comfortable working under tight deadlines that clients sometimes impose.
Demonstrated ability to independently manage projects, interact with clients, and work effectively as a team member.
In‑house experience is valued; part‑time schedules may be accommodated for the right candidate; more experienced attorneys are valued and welcome.
Location
We are in‑office 3 days per week, and the ideal candidate will be in Washington D.C., or New York, although San Francisco, and Chicago are also options. Eligible candidates must be barred in the jurisdiction from which they will work.
Salary & Benefits
ZwillGen is committed to pay transparency in accordance with applicable wage laws. Base salary will be $225,000 - $300,000/annually depending on experience and desired hours target.
We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including:
Medical, dental, and vision insurance
401(k) retirement plan
Paid time off and parental leave
Short‑term and long‑term disability coverage
Eligibility for the firm's perks fringe benefit program
