• Telephone:Answer and direct incoming telephone calls professionally and efficiently. Take accurate messages and ensure calls are routed to the appropriate attorney or staff member.
• Office Awareness:Maintain a general understanding of where attorneys and staff are located and whether they are available, in meetings, in court, working remotely, or otherwise unavailable. Provide accurate information to callers and visitors.
• Conference Rooms:Schedule conference rooms and ensure they are properly prepared before meetings. Keep conference rooms clean, neat, organized, and presentable throughout the day.

• Proactive Office Support:Pay attention to the condition and needs of the reception area and office. Identify problems before they become larger issues and take appropriate action rather than waiting to be told what needs to be done.
• Administrative Support:Assist attorneys, paralegals, and administrative staff with miscellaneous projects and tasks as needed. Be willing to step in and help wherever support is needed.
• Professional Communication:Communicate courteously and professionally with clients, attorneys, staff, vendors, couriers, building personnel, and other visitors.

• Demonstrate good judgment, professionalism, and discretion when interacting with clients and visitors.

• Be dependable, punctual, and accountable for assigned responsibilities.

What We Are Looking For

A good attitude, reliability, professionalism, and initiative are just as important as experience.

We are committed to the success of our clients.
