ERISA Associate Attorney
Law clerk job in Chicago, IL
You didn't go to law school to spend three years reviewing 401(k) plan documents in a windowless office.
You should be advising private equity funds on their biggest deals, shaping DOL guidance that moves markets, and telling Goldman Sachs whether their structured product passes ERISA muster-not just running prohibited transaction checklists.
You're ready to be a trusted advisor on billion-dollar transactions, not just an ERISA compliance clerk.
A top AmLaw firm is expanding its elite ERISA Fiduciary practice to meet surging demand from financial institutions, asset managers, and private funds navigating the most complex regulatory landscape in decades.
This isn't about filling a spot on the bench. This is about adding a sharp, hungry lawyer to a practice that advises on the deals you read about in the WSJ.
What You'll Actually Do:
Advise private equity and hedge funds on ERISA compliance for fund formation and complex transactions
Work directly with clients on credit agreements, structured finance products, and alternative investments

Regulatory Impact: Help draft the rules that govern trillion-dollar markets
Practice Diversity: Exposure to private funds, structured products, and plan sponsor work-not just one repetitive task
The Catch: This practice sits at the intersection of finance and regulation. You need to understand both complex financial structures AND arcane ERISA rules. It's intellectually demanding, and they're selective about who they add.
This is your chance to join an ERISA practice that actually advises on deals that matter.
