Job Description

You'll Thrive Here If You Want to Do Exceptional Work With Exceptional People. Who We Are We're a woman-owned, mission-driven, fast-growing law firm (our caseload has doubled year-over-year two years in a row and we're looking to double it again) helping families plan and protect their legacies--without court, conflict, or confusion. We believe in doing work that matters, leading with heart and integrity, and building a team where accountability is expected and excellence is celebrated. Who We're Looking For Whether you have years of probate experience or you are an entry-level professional looking to launch your legal career, we want high achievers. We care less about years on a resume and more about drive, intellect and attitude. You are proactive, take initiative without waiting to be micro-manages, work exceptionally well independently, and possess a fierce willingness to learn. You want to do high-quality legal work with clients who appreciate your guidance while growing alongside professionals who actually care about the outcomes delivered to clients. What You'll Get In addition to joining a dynamic team of overachievers like yourself that values flexibility and exceptional work, you'll receive: Competitive compensation based on experience, with opportunity for performance-based bonuses. A supportive team culture where your contributions are valued and your growth is encouraged. Opportunities for professional development and advancement within a fast-growing firm. What You'll Be Doing: Assist with estate and trust administration, including the preparation of pleadings, inventories and accountings. Maintain and organize client files with extreme precision, ensuring accuracy and confidentiality. Proactively communicate with clients to gather necessary information, answer inquiries, and provide updates on case progress. Coordinate appointments, meetings and court appearances for attorneys. Take ownership of learning our practice areas and contribute to improving workflows, systems, and processes as our firm grows. Qualifications Drive and Ownership: Self-starter with strong work ethic, high resourcefulness, and ability to work independently. Growth Mindset: High coachability and an eager willingness to master probate and trust administration. Precision: exceptional attention to detail, proofreading, and organizational skills. Experience: Prior experience in estate planning and probate administration is a big plus, but a proven track record of high achievement and quick learning is what matters most. Education: Associate or Bachelor's degree in Legal Studies, Paralegal Studies (or related field) OR an equivalent of 2+ years or relevant legal probate experience. We're not your typical law firm. We're a woman-owned firm that is purpose-driven, performance-minded, and people-focused. We've doubled our caseload in the past two years and plan to double again. Our founder is excited to surround herself with a team of professionals who are focused on career growth, understanding client needs, and delivering exceptional experiences to clients. What we value: Accountability Elevated Client Journey; Grounded Conversations If you're sharp, steady, and serious about building something meaningful for yourself and clients, we invite you to apply. #J-18808-Ljbffr
