About the Consumer Protection Division:
The Consumer Protection Division (CP) is composed of attorneys and professional staff. The division enforces the Consumer Protection Act (RCW 19.86) and other statutes to help keep the Washington marketplace free of unfair and deceptive practices. The division investigates and files legal actions to stop unfair and deceptive practices, recovers refunds for consumers, seeks penalties against offending entities, and recovers costs and fees to ensure that wrongdoers pay for their actions. Division staff participate in the many legislative initiatives that affect consumer protection each year. The Consumer Protection Division also includes public service programs including the Consumer Resource Center and administers the Washington State Lemon Law Program and the Manufactured Housing Dispute Resolution Program.
Professional staff can expect to participate in high-profile consumer protection litigation such as the State v. Navient (student lending), State v. Providence (charity care violations), State v. Google (unlawful privacy practices), State v. Chuck&rsquo;s Towing (failure to comply with Servicemembers&rsquo; Civil Relief Act), State v. CA Certificate Services (government imposter), State v. Federal Way Discount Guns (unlawful sale of large capacity magazines), State v.Puppyland (predatory lending), State v. CLA Estate Services,Inc., et al. (financial exploitation of seniors), and State v.LuLaRoe (misrepresentations regarding profitability).
Duties and Essential Functions of a Paralegal 2 &ndash; Supervisor: 
 In support of the Mission and Values of the Attorney General's Office, Consumer Protection Division, the primary purpose of this position is to supervise legal support staff and to perform expert level legal support to CP Division AAGs enforcing the Consumer Protection Act.
Professional staff in the Consumer Protection Division are valued members of litigation teams. Their input is critical to case management and strategy. The division is a collaborative environment where individuals&rsquo; contributions are equally valued. If you are offered this position, you can expect to be an active participant in case planning and provide valuable input when big decisions are being made.
The Division&rsquo;s management strives to find engaging, interesting, and fulfilling work that is well suited to the experience level and interests of the individual staff members. The Division does a good job of balancing the staffing needs of the various investigations and cases with finding teams that work well together and foster a collaborative work environment. The Division&rsquo;s management also makes professional growth a priority. Professional staff are encouraged to take on more responsibility as their careers progress, and training, leadership, and professional development are all opportunities this position will provide.
If you enjoy helping people reach their full potential and career goals and being a part of a collaborative team environment, this position is for you!

You will act as a resource to division staff for questions and concerns regarding legal support services, assignments, and litigation support systems used by the division or office. Your organizational skills will be necessary to resolve workload overflow and conflicts using your knowledge of legal support staff assignments by determining workload distribution of the team.

You will review legal documents for proper formatting and ensure court rules have been followed. You will draft and prepare pleadings, discovery, and case information at attorneys&rsquo; request. You will initiate correspondence and pleadings for attorneys&rsquo; signatures, and proofread, format, and finalize letters, memos, reports, and pleadings. As matters approach trial, you will be a critical part of the team, providing trial support on CP enforcement cases, compiling exhibits/attachments, maintaining service lists, and ensuring that legal documents are prepared and processed to meet legal requirements and all filing deadlines. You will also maintain physical and electronic files, including electronic calendars, and keep attorneys and other paralegals informed of upcoming deadlines (status reports, discovery deadlines, brief filing deadlines, hearings, etc.).
This position will be well suited to candidates who prefer diversity in their daily work. There is a long list of ways that you will contribute to the Division in addition to litigation related tasks. Your leadership skills will be particularly important to your success in this position. You will develop and monitor staff performance to prepare for promotional opportunities, improve their performance, and help them gain knowledge and skill in their individual roles. You will provide ongoing training to new and existing staff and provide new staff with orientation. You will also participate in agency performance management program by conducting quarterly check-ins and annual performance evaluations of direct report staff. Additionally, you will oversee administrative tasks, like approving leave and work schedules in alignment with agency and division policies and procedures for employees under direct supervision.
Your years of experience will be an essential resource for the division as you assist in developing policies and procedures and review and update office manuals to maximize the efficiency and operations of Division legal support services. In conjunction with Division support supervisors, attorney team leads and management, you will also develop and implement policies and procedures for the division.
Your interpersonal skills will be important as you participate in, lead and facilitate meetings, committees and working groups. You will consult and coordinate with the Litigation Support Manager (LSM) to plan, lead, organize, and regulate the work performed by legal professional staff as well as the development of training plans, continued compliance with AGO and Division policies and procedures and make recommendations to develop or improve systems and procedures to ensure effective and efficient workload management and methods.

Center for Family Representation

<div>The Center for Family Representation Inc. (CFR) is an award-winning, innovative law and policy organization that serves primarily Black and Brown families and youth in Queens, Staten Island, Manhattan, and the Bronx with an interdisciplinary legal defense model that serves more than 2400 clients every year. CFR was originally founded in 2002 to dramatically change the trajectory of indigent parents being prosecuted by the City&rsquo;s Administration for Children&rsquo;s Services (ACS). Our goal is to defend and protect our clients&rsquo; rights, reduce the harm of family separation and prevent or minimize the time any child spends in the foster system.
 CFR provides interdisciplinary family defense with a model that was unique at our founding and that is now replicated nationally: we assign every client an attorney and a social work staff member, and teams have the support of parent advocates, who are parents with direct personal experience of being investigated and prosecuted by ACS. CFR was the first agency in the country to integrate parents with lived experience into legal teams and now has seven parent advocates working in all three of our family defense locations. CFR&rsquo;s Community Advocacy Project represents parents during a child protective investigation (to avoid court involvement where possible) and assists parents in clearing their names from state maltreatment records.
As an agency committed to securing justice for families, we built the Youth Defense practice (YDP) to defend youth at risk of family separation through incarceration. YDP uses the same interdisciplinary model to represent youth in Queens and Manhattan in Supreme Court Youth Parts, during Probation Adjustment and in Delinquency proceedings in Family Court. CFR&rsquo;s Home for Good program provides legal and social work services to clients in immigration, civil legal services and criminal defense matters, to afford clients an efficient and well-coordinated one-stop solution to a range of issues that threaten family stability. 
Recognized as experts in our fields, we annually train over 500 practitioners in the city, state and around the country on strategies to promote family preservation and interdisciplinary representation, and we provide community based &ldquo;Know Your Rights&rdquo; presentations to parents, youth and service providers. We advocate at the city, state and national level for policies that reduce the harm of family separation, and promote parent engagement and justice for youth and families.
