Who You Are A seasoned legal administrative professional with at least five years of experience supporting litigation attorneys, ideally in complex commercial matters. Confident navigating both federal and state court systems, including electronic filing platforms like PACER, CM/ECF, and local portals. Exceptionally organized, with a sharp eye for detail and a calm, solutions-oriented approach to high-pressure situations. Skilled at managing multiple priorities across different matters, and comfortable working with attorneys who need quick turnarounds. Proactive, resourceful, and always looking for ways to stay current with procedural updates and court rules. What You’ll Do Prepare and file legal documents across multiple jurisdictions, ensuring accuracy and compliance with court-specific requirements. Manage filings in both federal and California state courts, including large motion packages with exhibits and declarations.

Stay informed on procedural changes and filing protocols, especially in high-volume courts like Los Angeles Superior Court. Support attorneys with time entry, billing coordination, travel planning, and client communications.

Attorneys trust you to manage critical dates and filings without reminders or follow-ups. You handle urgent requests with grace, while communicating clearly and prioritizing effectively. You catch potential filing issues before they happen, ensuring packages are complete and compliant. You bring a calm, confident presence to the team, even when juggling multiple high-stakes matters.
