NJP secures justice for people in or near poverty through high quality legal advocacy that promotes the long-term well-being of low-income individuals, families and communities through legal representation, community partnerships, education, and other advocacy.

Northwest Justice Project (NJP) seeks a qualified attorney for its Foreclosure Prevention Unit (FPU). FPU attorneys work in collaboration with the statewide network of foreclosure defense advocates to address the legal needs of homeowners to mitigate or prevent home foreclosure throughout Washington State. NJP is offering an opportunity to work in an exciting and highly mission driven legal aid environment working as part of a statewide legal team.

This is a regular full-time position in a statewide unit. The physical office to which the attorney is assigned is flexible but may be dependent upon available space. A hybrid work schedule is possible if requirements of NJP's telecommuting policy are met.

This position has funding through June 2025 and additional funding may be available. Current NJP employees earn seniority based on original hire date as long as no break in employment over one year has occurred. Newly hired employees will take their seniority date with them if they transfer to a new position at NJP after the funding ends.

NJP is especially interested in qualified candidates with professional, personal and/or service experience that allows them to contribute to and support the legal aid community’s commitment to race equity. Candidates must be willing to be engaged with the community to be served.

Starting salary is based upon years of experience, with an annual salary range starting at $73,142 to $133,712. NJP offers compensation for those who are regularly asked to use a language other than English in their work. We provide a comprehensive benefits package that includes 100% paid employee health premiums and significant premium shares for family health premiums, as well as generous time off.
