Legal Assistant

Job Description

Job Description

We are a growing estate planning and probate law firm looking for someone who enjoys bringing order to busy days.

The right person for this role likes checklists, follow-through, and keeping details from falling through the cracks.

While much of this position involves client intake, scheduling, document management, and administrative support, you'll also greet clients, help them feel welcome, and provide backup support for our Practice Coordinator.

If you enjoy both people and processes, you'll thrive here. If you strongly prefer working only with documents—or only with people—this role probably isn't the right fit. This is a foundational role within the firm , focused on organization, accuracy, and follow-through.
