Work on site:  Cheektowaga, NY

Need assistance in the following areas of practice:

• Mortgage Modification : Prepare mortgage modification applications for attorney review, submit to mortgage companies or their attorneys to save a client’s home from a foreclosure sale.
• Manage both types of files for the attorney.

We are looking for a Superstar. Don’t even consider responding to this ad unless:

• you are truly talented;
• you are a pleasure to deal with;
• you believe that you can be the best at almost anything you do and you can prove that;
• you enjoy developing a deep and meaningful rapport with clients;
• you are extremely customer-oriented;
• you have a burning desire to succeed;
• you are highly motivated;
• you have a never-say-die attitude; and
• you find ways to perform well, even in bad situations

The Ideal Person:

• We firmly believe in hiring the RIGHT person for this job, not simply the person with the most credentials. The person we hire will know what it means to meet deadlines, work independently, and will restore our faith in the American work ethic. We like working with smart, motivated individuals who are eager to learn.
• We would love to work with an experienced (5+ years) paralegal or mortgage processor who is motivated and has significant experience in one or more of the following areas of law: mortgage modification, bankruptcy, foreclosure and/or real estate, but we are willing to teach the RIGHT person who has a year or two of experience as a paralegal or mortgage processor.
• If you are interested in helping people save their homes through mortgage modification law or bankruptcy, are a quick learner, can follow clearly stated expectations, will follow the standards and procedures of John D’Amato PLLC, will conduct yourself in a professional manner, and clearly understand the difference between activity and accomplishment , then you should apply today! We would love to hear from you.

What you can expect:

• Gentle, flexible hours and fast payment. Unlike full time mortgage processors or paralegals, you show up (or work from home), and do your work on a flexible schedule that you set. You will be free to enjoy life, making a difference and helping people. Isn’t that your ideal for a work-life balance?
• Low pressure and a low-stress environment . We believe this is an ideal position for someone who wants part-time work as a “retired” individual or someone who wants to raise a family and still work part-time.
• Compensation : To be determined based upon the package you send us. We will pay hourly or on a fixed-fee basis. We would rather work with someone motivated to finish a task than to pay someone on an hourly basis. This means you will have the chance to make more money if you work harder.

Please do not apply if:

• You are someone looking for full-time work, but cannot find it;
• you do not already understand: how to prepare a budget;
• you make excuses for your poor performance;
• you view firm clients as an inconvenience;
• you are not punctual;
• you were the student who needed mom or dad to remind you about completing your homework or your projects;
• you need a lot of direction and hands-on guidance;
• you are already set in your ways and are not willing to learn; and
• you prefer to put off until tomorrow what could be done today.

This is not the job for you.
