Paralegal because Lawyers need Heroes Too!

Yes, lawyers need heroes too! We’re looking for someone to have our backs and take care of our clients. This won’t be the perfect job for everyone. We have a very specific person that we’re attracting with this ad and it might be you. We are an entrepreneurial Real Estate and Probate law firm experiencing massive growth. We need a paralegal who can hit the ground running as we continue to serve our clients. Do you want to contribute to something bigger than yourself by helping families navigate through the Probate Process? And what about fighting on clients sides when it comes to real estate lawsuits. Do you want to help deliver excellent legal services and help clients make sense of their circumstances?

So, these qualities should apply to you …

• You don’t think filing, data entry, scanning, or copying are “beneath you.”
• You can deal with a leader who might not give much direction and hates dealing with routine drafting matters.
• You’re not afraid to point out that you need more training or communication to get your work done.
• You are vey good with calendars, email, and know how to use they’re, their, and there.
• You understand the difference between being great and having to tell others you’re great.
• You have a sickening degree of attention to detail.
• You are an awesome juggler of tasks and can change gears quickly.
• You know how to dress for work in a professional, business-casual law firm.
• You want people to be better off because they’ve worked with you.
• You have set ( or want to set) personal and professional goals.
• You genuinely care about people and realize that why we do what we do and that they are not an inconvenience.
• You believe that being prepared is being empowered.
• You love being part of a work environment that feels like family, where it’s OK to laugh and have fun.

The ideal candidate will:

• had case management paralegal responsibilities on cases;
• has had experence working on Estate Planning & Probate matters at least 20 cases with lead paralegal responsibilties;
• have had contact with the Clerk of Courts and knows how to navigate the court system; and
• have had primary paralegal responsibilities for at least 10 Real Estate Closings.

Experience with drafting software is preferred though not required. You should be able to organize records, schedule appointments including depositions, court hearings, etc., meet with client, file court documents and calculate, track, and meet deadlines. The ideal candidate MUST be able to track initiative on work that needs to be done and must be able to complete tasks with minimal supervision. The successful candidate can accurately track time to specific matters. We’d love to find the pro-active individual who can see the big picture and then make recommendations for all the nitty-gritty details to make things better instead of waiting around for instructions.

We are looking for a long-term relationship with the right candidate. We want our paralegals to be the clients’ and attorneys “go-to” players on the team. It goes without saying, but I’ll mention it just in case… we expect the ideal candidate to be a thoughtful and detailed oriented person, extremely organized with a high degree of personal pride for a job well-done.

This is a full-time job, so you MUST be able to work 40 hours pers week, with flexibility and freedom earned for figuring out how to get things done.

Basically, the fact that you’ve worked in a law firm or have a paralegal degree is great, but we hire attitude over skillset.

If you’ve read this far and this still interest you, then mail us your resume and cover letter with an explanation as to why you would be a “good fit.” We firmly believe in hiring people who are a “good fit” for the organization – attitude over skillset.
