The ideal candidate is fiercely organized, possesses meticulous attention to detail, and excels at ensuring busy attorneys are prepared for court, meetings, and meet deadlines.

● Client Advisory: Serve as a compassionate, professional, and accessible point of contact for clients, delivering timely status updates and obtaining necessary case information.

Billing & Financial Operations (Cross-Training with Billing & Bookkeeping Staff)

● Input time entries, run monthly billing cycles via billing portals and specialized software, implement attorney revisions, proofread financial statements, and field client billing inquiries with professionalism and discretion.

Qualifications & Experience

● Experience: 5+ years of dedicated family law/domestic relations paralegal experience within Illinois (Cook, Lake, and/or DuPage county experience preferred).

● Education: A paralegal degree or certification is a plus, but proven, hands-on family law experience is heavily prioritized.

● Technical Proficiencies: Microsoft Office Suite, MAC OS, Adobe Acrobat Professional, and county e-filing portals are required. Experience with Timeslips billing software is a major advantage.

Core Competencies

● Unwavering Professionalism: Arrives promptly, demonstrates a "get the job done" work ethic, and operates as an ambitious, dedicated team player.
