Job Description

 

We are looking for a full-time legal assistant with a minimum of 5 years’ experience. If you’re a “right fit”, you’ll have a job that has autonomy and you’ll work with highly professional, yet friendly co-workers. If you’re a right fit, AND you meet the following, this job is for you.

________________________________________

Duties include, but are not limited to:

  • Client contact
  • Draft legal documents
  • Ensure file organization based on office protocol
  • Provide ad hoc support around the office as needed
  • Client written and verbal correspondence

 

Necessary skills:

  • You know how to use, technology: Zoom, Adobe, and Microsoft Office
  • Great phone manners/phone etiquette
  • Ability to learn new computer programs
  • Familiarity and experience with general office equipment (copy machines, fax, computers, phones)

_____________________________________

This job is ideal for you if you enjoy:

  • working independently
  • systematizing processes
  • organizing information and materials
  • collecting data
  • requiring specificity
  • establishing priorities
  • gathering complex information
  • taking on challenges
  • being deadline-driven

 

This job is ideal for you if you have a knack for:

  • maintaining order
  • complying with the plan
  • confirming priorities
  • clarifying specifics
  • filling in the blanks
  • navigating through uncertainty
  • trying alternatives
  • adjusting to change

 

Primary support will be directly to one attorney. The goal is always to provide the best client experience possible; this means that "get it done" when necessary IS necessary! It is not mandatory to have a degree, although it is helpful. Your ability, attitude, and professionalism are what matter in this position. Must have experience as a legal assistant and it is a plus if you have experience in a family law office and knowledge of e-filing/truefiling. You must be willing to engage in testing prior to employment, and a background check.

TO APPLY (follow these directions in their entirety or your application will NOT be considered, and you will not be contacted):

1. Please send a resume and cover letter in .pdf format only to the email address provided.

2. In your cover letter, indicate hours preferred to work (starting time and ending time).

3. In your cover letter, state your salary or hourly wage requirements.

Do not apply if you have a criminal record related to crimes of dishonesty or fraud.
