About The Role

Generalist / Clerical Legal Assistant

The Generalist / Clerical Legal Assistant provides centralized administrative and case-support services to Specialist Legal Assistants across the firm. Unlike Specialist Legal Assistants, this role is not assigned to a specific attorney, metro, or caseload. Instead, Generalist Legal Assistants support multiple teams based on workload, priorities, and business needs.

The role handles standardized clerical, court, discovery, records, document, and case-support tasks. The successful candidate works independently, follows established procedures, manages competing priorities, and maintains a high level of accuracy when handling case information and legal documents.

• Provide task-based support to Specialist Legal Assistants across different attorneys, metros, and caseloads

• Maintain accurate and timely updates in firm systems
• Communicate proactively when information is unavailable, a task cannot be completed, or additional action is required
• Protect confidential client and case information and follow all firm data-handling and security policies

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in administrative, legal support, customer service, clerical, or case-management roles serving an international company or clients
• Must have a reliable PC/laptop, stable internet, and work-from-home setup
• Must be willing to work night shifts, weekends, and holidays
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
• Able to work independently and manage multiple priorities
• Proficient in using computers and multiple software systems
• Able to handle confidential information and meet deadlines

Preferred

• Experience in a law firm, legal services organization, court, government agency, or similar environment
• Familiarity with legal terminology, court processes, discovery, motions, or case-management systems
• Experience communicating with courts, government agencies, or other legal stakeholders

Performance Expectations

• Completes assigned work accurately and on time
