• Track deadlines and maintain orderly case files
• Serve as a primary point of contact for clients, vendors, and service providers
• Maintain strict confidentiality and exercise sound judgment
• Provide limited support for partners’ personal financial and business matters

Qualifications

• Strong proficiency in Microsoft Word and office technology
• Excellent typing skills and exceptional attention to detail
• Bookkeeping or accounting experience
• Highly organized, discreet, and professional communication styleComfortable managing competing priorities in a fast‑paced environment

Preferred Experience

• Prior law firm administration or office management experience
• Experience supporting trust, estates, or closely held professional practices
• Familiarity with Georgia court filing procedures (helpful, but not required)

Why This Role

This position is well‑suited for an experienced administrator who enjoys being trusted, relied upon, and deeply embedded in the daily rhythm of a small, relationship‑driven practice. The firm values longevity, professionalism, and a thoughtful approach to client service.

If this sounds like the kind of environment where you do your best work, we would welcome a confidential conversation.
