Our personal injury firm is growing, and we're looking for an organized, detail-oriented Legal Assistant to support our attorneys and paralegal team.

Support attorneys and the paralegal team with case preparation and administrative tasks
Answer phones, manage client intake documentation, and help maintain case management software
What We're Looking For
A minimum of 1 year of prior experience in a law firm setting; personal injury experience strongly preferred
Excellent organizational skills and close attention to detail
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Ability to manage multiple deadlines and prioritize in a high-volume environment
Comfortable with case management software, Microsoft Office, and general office technology
A professional, empathetic manner when working with clients who have experienced injury or loss
Self-starter who can work independently while being a reliable team player
Familiarity with medical record terminology and records requests
Nice to Have
Bilingual (Spanish/English) a plus
