  • Organize and manage documents within the firm’s document management system

Operational & Administrative Duties

  • Handle incoming/outgoing mail and coordinate messenger services as needed
  • Assist with time entry, billing coordination, and expense tracking
  • Maintain strict confidentiality across all client matters

Team Contribution

  • Jump in to assist across the team when priorities shift
  • Partner with other assistants and departments to keep operations running smoothly

What They’re Looking For

  • 3+ years of legal assistant experience (law firm environment preferred)
  • Experience supporting multiple attorneys simultaneously
  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Outlook, Excel)
  • Excellent organization, communication, and follow-through skills
  • Ability to work independently while staying aligned with a team

Nice to Have (But Not Required):
