Unleash Your Potential as a Legal Assistant at Our Boutique Family Law Firm

Step into the heart of downtown Spartanburg, South Carolina, where a unique opportunity awaits you at our boutique family law firm. We're on the hunt for a dynamic Legal Assistant to join our team. This isn't just a job; it's a chance to immerse yourself in a fast-paced, stimulating environment where your skills will be honed, your talents nurtured, and your career trajectory limited only by your own ambitions.

As a Legal Assistant in our firm, you'll serve as a key ambassador of our firm, embodying our values and mission in every interaction. You will work closely with our Managing Partner and serve as the vital conduit between our esteemed attorneys, valued clients, and fellow legal professionals. We're looking for someone who embodies professionalism, possesses exceptional communication skills, and can juggle multiple tasks with minimal supervision. Previous experience in a legal or executive assistant role would be advantageous, but it's your drive and dedication we're truly interested in.

Your Daily Responsibilities

Case Management Extraordinaire: You'll work in coordination with our attorneys, ensuring all necessary information for hearings, litigation, mediation, and other cases are meticulously prepared and organized. You'll also be the go-to person for scheduling and information gathering for mediation cases and will assist the Managing Partner in maintaining a detailed case status log to keep track of deadlines.

Master of Drafting: You'll have the opportunity to flex your writing muscles by creating preliminary drafts of letters and organizing data collected from client forms and worksheets. Experience in preparing information for trials and depositions, as well as drafting pleadings, Orders, and related documents, is a bonus, but not required.

Financial Stewardship: You'll play a key role in maintaining accurate payment records for client cases and other matters handled by our firm, ensuring all payments are recorded and the firm receipt books are properly maintained.

Are You the Star We’re Searching For?

If the following descriptions resonate with you, don't hesitate for a moment. Your future awaits, and we're eager to meet you.

You'll be self-reliant, detail-oriented, and able to handle multiple tasks simultaneously.

You'll ask questions but never make excuses.

You'll demonstrate prompt, consistent attendance, meet deadlines, work independently and collaboratively, and restore our faith in good old-fashioned work ethic. We believe in individual responsibility, productivity, and rewards for great work.

You're a customer service superstar, handling sensitive, confidential information with the grace of a diplomat and the discretion of a spy.

Your communication skills are second to none, both in the spoken and written word.

You're a knowledge-thirsty go-getter, eager to learn and able to take the reins on projects with minimal guidance.

Your attention to detail is laser-sharp, and your organizational skills would make Marie Kondo proud.

You hold at least a High School Diploma, but perhaps you've ventured further into the realms of junior college or university.

You've dipped your toes in the legal world before, either in a law firm, legal services agency, or as an executive assistant. If not, no worries - we value potential and good attitudes over your past experiences.

You're a proud holder of a valid South Carolina Driver’s License and have reliable transportation.

You're a whiz with computers, and if those computers happen to be Macs, even better.

Experience in litigation and/or a family law practice would be a feather in your cap, but it's not a must. We're more intrigued by your can-do attitude and your appetite for expanding your knowledge and skill sets. If you're a tech-savvy dynamo with a knack for thriving in a modern law firm, you're just the person we're looking for.
