Naturally notices details and catches mistakes before they become problems.
Follows through until tasks are fully completed.
Is comfortable asking questions when something does not seem right.
Communicates promptly when information is missing or clarification is needed.
Treats every client with kindness, professionalism, patience, and empathy.
Enjoys working collaboratively while also being able to work independently.

Case Management

Take ownership of assigned case files from opening through completion.
Track deadlines and proactively move matters forward.
Review files regularly to identify missing information, outstanding tasks, or issues requiring attorney attention.
Maintain accurate and organized electronic case files.
Keep attorneys informed of significant developments and unresolved issues.

Drafting and Legal Support

Draft estate planning documents, probate pleadings, guardianship documents, deeds, correspondence, and related legal documents.
Prepare documents for court filing and assist with the filing process.
Review drafted documents carefully for accuracy, completeness, formatting, grammar, and consistency before attorney review.
Prepare final signing copies and assist with the execution of documents.
Support attorneys with estate planning, probate, trust administration, guardianship, and elder law matters.

Client Communication

Communicate professionally and compassionately with clients by phone, email, and in person.
Provide updates, obtain requested information, schedule appointments, and answer appropriate procedural questions.
Maintain a high level of responsiveness and professionalism in all communications.
Help ensure clients feel informed and supported throughout the legal process.

Administrative Responsibilities

Maintain organized electronic files.
Scan, upload, label, and organize incoming documents.
Assist with witnessing and coordinating document signings.
Return phone calls and provide occasional backup reception coverage as needed.
Perform other administrative or legal support tasks as assigned.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

To be considered, please upload your professional resume, and a brief cover letter describing what makes you a good candidate and your interest in the position, submitted under "Supporting documents" before submitting your application.
