• Scheduling meetings and court hearings.
• Reviewing and proofreading attorneys' writing. As such, it is important that the candidate have excellent grammar and writing.
With time, your job description may expand. We value those that think outside the box, always looking for ways to expand and develop our business, structure, and procedures.
Although this is not an easy job, it is an extremely rewarding job for the person who is hungry to develop both personally and professionally.
Please email and attach your resume. Although a personal statement is not necessary, a paragraph explaining why you're applying to our firm and why you would be a good fit would be helpful. Please also include a salary history.
