Description
About This Opportunity
This isn’t just another desk job. It’s a chance to become the backbone of a sharp, fast-moving legal team in Woodbury, Long Island—where your organizational superpowers and legal know-how will directly shape outcomes for families and businesses. If you thrive on precision, juggle deadlines like a pro, and want to work with a firm that values your expertise (and pays for it), keep reading.
What You’ll Do
You’ll step into a role where no two days look the same. One morning, you’re drafting a complex contract; by afternoon, you’re coordinating a court filing and calming a client’s nerves. Here’s the real work:
• Draft, edit, and proofread legal documents—from correspondence and pleadings to contracts and memoranda—with an eagle eye for detail.
• Own the case files. You’ll organize, update, and maintain them so nothing slips through the cracks.
• Dig into legal research and compile materials that give attorneys the edge they need for case prep.
• Master the calendar. Manage attorney schedules, book meetings, and coordinate appointments without breaking a sweat.
• Be the voice of the firm. Communicate professionally with clients, court personnel, and external parties—handling calls, emails, and correspondence with grace under pressure.
• Handle the admin backbone: filing, scanning, photocopying, and whatever else keeps the office humming.
What You Bring
You’re not just a legal secretary—you’re a seasoned pro who’s been around the block. Here’s what we need to see:
• Proven experience as a Legal Secretary, ideally in family and business law (you know the nuances).
• Tech-savvy: You’re fluent in Microsoft Office and NYSCEF (New York State Courts Electronic Filing system)—no learning curve required.
• Organizational wizardry: You juggle multiple priorities without losing your cool, even when deadlines are tight.
• Communication chops: You write and speak clearly, whether you’re explaining a filing to a client or coordinating with a judge’s chambers.
• Team player: You collaborate easily, but you also know when to work independently.
• Discretion is your middle name. You handle confidential information with the seriousness it deserves.
The Nitty-Gritty
• Location: Woodbury, NY (Long Island)—with a hybrid schedule that gives you flexibility.
• Compensation: $70,000 – $75,000 per year, based on experience.
• Benefits: Health insurance credit + 401(k) plan.
• Job Type: Direct hire, full-time.
