Join Our Award-Winning Law Firm!
Once upon a time, in a friendly Rochester office, there was a team of lawyers who cared deeply about helping families through some of life’s biggest transitions. But here’s the secret: the real magic didn’t just come from the attorneys—it came from the incredible people behind the scenes who kept everything running smoothly.
That’s where you come in.
Our firm is rapidly growing, and we’re looking for a full-time legal assistant to join our team. This is an exciting time to come aboard—our growth means more opportunities, more variety in the work, and a chance to shape the way we serve clients for years to come.
We’re looking for a full-time legal assistant who isn’t afraid of details (in fact, you love them), can write beautifully, thrives in a team setting, and gets a little excited when discovering new technology that makes life easier. If organizing, supporting others, and making things “just right” brings you joy, you might be our next hero.
