Job description
Description
The Law Office of Lena A. Clark is seeking a detail-oriented go-getter and problem-solver for a position as a Legal Assistant for our busy Estate Planning and Probate law firm in Frederick, Maryland. We are a small law firm looking for a candidate who is attentive to detail, has good spelling, can follow specific instructions, and can figure things out with minimal hand-holding.
Responsibilities
Serve as the backbone of our operation by providing support to team members as needed.
Participate in Estate Planning and Probate document drafting.
Orchestrate signings of Estate Planning documents.
Maintain attorney calendar and email inbox.
Draft and Explain retainer agreements for new clients and process payments.
Open and close client files.
Manage client information and organize client files.
Maryland Notary Public designation is highly desired and will be required to obtain (very easy and we will reimburse for the training course).
Qualifications
Who are we looking for?
Someone who wants to work in the heart of downtown Frederick and sees themselves doing this type of job long-term with an opportunity to grow.
We are an Apple-based office, so you will need to know how to navigate and troubleshoot a Mac computer without needing the assistance of others. We use a lot of technology, so it is essential that you can use and learn technology quickly in an independent manner.
You are welcome to apply here but this is how you can immediately stand out from the crowd:
Prepare a cover letter with no more than Two paragraphs and a closing sentence. In the first paragraph, describe your legal assistant/other office experience and how technologically savvy you are (especially with Apple products). In the second paragraph, explain your ties to Frederick and where you see yourself in 5 years. As a closing sentence, please write, "I have read the instructions contained in the job posting and have followed the instructions."
Email your resume and cover letter in PDF format to admin at lenaclarklegal dot com. The email's subject line should be your last name (all caps), followed by the position you are applying for in lowercase, followed by one word that you would use to describe yourself in all caps (for example, SMITH legal assistant AWESOME).
