We are a small litigation firm looking for a paralegal and/or legal secretary. We are looking for a paralegal who is adaptable, hard-working, and willing to do an array of tasks. Our firm is very systems-oriented and we require a high degree of organization. We need a paralegal who easily handles technology, solves problems, takes responsibility for tasks and cases, has a sense of humor, and can do what it takes to get things done! This paralegal would support two attorneys and needs to have the ability to juggle lots of work with a smile and a positive attitude.

The position requires competency with computers and technology. Our firm runs completely on web browser based applications and a VOIP phone system. We require a high level of ease and understanding of technology. In your cover letter, please describe in detail your personal and business experience with computers, any form of technology, applications and any other information that you feel would be valuable to us in assessing your competency level with technology. Extra consideration will be given to applicants who are able to send us a photo and create a link to a brief video introduction of himself or herself.

Paralegals at our firm have a lot of interaction with potential client, existing clients, courts, and opposing counsel. You must be able to instill confidence and convey that our firm is professional, competent, and organized. You would be the first impression of our firm to others and we take our reputation seriously. We want someone who is high-energy, professional, very organized, and who really likes people! This job requires attention to detail and requires experience in administrative tasks.

The position is a full-time position 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. five days a week Monday through Friday with 1 hour maximum lunch break.

Note, we need someone who has the ability to follow detailed instructions. Please include the phrase "Best Paralegal EVER!" in the subject line of your email response. Any emails that do not have this phrase will be automatically filtered and deleted. We are always astounded at the number of people who cannot complete this simple task. Therefore, we emphasize, you MUST do this or your resume will not be considered at all.

Other requirements in applying (again, failure to meet these requirements means automatic deletion of your application):

Please send a resume, a cover letter with the information requested above, and the contact information for 3 professional references, including a description of how you know each reference. Your cover letter should give details as to exactly WHY you are perfect for this job!

Experience as a paralegal preferred. You must meet each of the requirements listed in the Job Description section.
