Analyst (Litigation Support) - June 2026

Kobre & Kim consistently seeks exceptional candidates with the talent to deliver outstanding service that anticipates client needs.

Position Details:

Kobre & Kim is a conflict-free global law firm focused exclusively on disputes and investigations, often involving fraud and misconduct. Recognized as the premier firm for cross-border disputes, the firm has a particular focus on financial products and services litigation, insolvency disputes, intellectual property litigation, international judgment enforcement and asset recovery, and U.S. government enforcement and regulatory investigations. Kobre & Kim operates out of offices in New York, Washington DC, San Francisco, Miami, Delaware, London, São Paolo, Tel Aviv, Dubai, Seoul, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Cyprus, Cayman Islands, and British Virgin Islands.

The Analyst position is an excellent opportunity for recent college graduates or young professionals to gain substantive, hands-on experience in the fields of complex international civil and criminal financial litigation. Analysts immediately become key members of case teams, often working directly alongside or in collaboration with the firm's attorneys and enjoying levels of responsibility and client contact surpassing what other law firms offer. Analysts also support pro bono, knowledge management, and global business development to drive the firm's practice and product innovation forward. As an Analyst, you'll work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment where your responsibilities adapt to the needs of each case team. This variety offers continual opportunities for learning and developing as a professional in the legal field.

Kobre & Kim offers two early career programs: Analyst and Litigation Assistant. Candidates may apply to only one program. Please review both job descriptions carefully and select the position that best aligns with your background, skills, and career goals before applying. Applications to both programs will not be considered.

Please note, this is a full-time role requiring a minimum of 40 hours per week. Candidates should submit a single application for the cohort they are eligible for and prefer to join based on their graduation date and availability to start on the target date of June 15, 2026. Applicants should not submit applications for both the January 2026 and June 2026 cohorts.
