Associate Counsel at Freedom Power isn't a holding pattern — it's the first rung on a defined ladder. You'll work directly alongside our legal leadership team, who are invested in mentoring you toward Senior Counsel and beyond. Expect regular feedback, real ownership of matters (not just busywork), and exposure to the kind of cross-functional strategic work that's usually reserved for much more senior attorneys. As you build expertise in energy, construction, and consumer law, you'll take on more autonomy, more complex matters, and a bigger seat at the table.
