Our work is supported by grant funding and allows us to handle about 9,000 civil legal cases in a year for low income and marginalized people and families. Court Navigators play a vital role in helping individuals who are representing themselves in court. They are trained non-attorneys who guide unrepresented litigants through the court process by offering procedural support, helping them prepare and organize documents, and ensuring they understand what to expect before, during, and after their court appearances.

  • Direct individuals to appropriate court services such as interpreters
  • Assist with referrals to community resources

  • A two-year or four-year degree in a relevant field such as human services, public administration, criminal justice, or legal studies
  • Completion of a paralegal or legal assistant program
  • Equivalent work experience involving community support, client advocacy, or assistance in a legal, court, or related professional setting may be substituted for the educational requirement on a year-for-year basis
  • Strong communicators who are comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with individuals from diverse backgrounds
  • Ability to work independently and in a team environment
  • Customer service, community outreach, or court experience is a plus
  • Professionalism, attention to detail, and a genuine commitment to helping others through challenging circumstances

Nice to have:

  • Customer service, community outreach, or court experience
  • Applicants with lived experience navigating the court system
What we offer:
  • A four day (35 hour) work week
  • Paid time off includes: holidays, sick leave, and personal leave (which after two years, increases to four weeks per year)
  • 100% fully paid health insurance for employee & dependent children after 60 days of employment
  • Employer paid life insurance policy of $25,000
  • Employer contributes 6% to retirement/ 401K plan, after one year of full-time service
