Post Falls, United States Skepsis Legal Solutions Full time
Job DescriptionJob DescriptionSkepsis Legal Solutions is hiring a legal assistant to support our quickly growing business law firm.  As a legal assistant, you will find yourself at the center of the legal process, playing an essential role in managing and organizing the firm’s cases.  You will be a critical part of our team that provides exceptional service and representation to our firm’s roster of top-notch local business clientele.  The legal assistant is a specialist in administrative support, playing a pivotal role as a gatekeeper, case manager, and trusted team player.

About Us:
At Skepsis Legal, we strive to empower local businesses to navigate the legal landscape with confidence.

  • Proactively manage and maintain attorney calendars (in G-Suite) to schedule meetings (which may be work-related or personal) and resolve conflicts.
  • Act as both a liaison and gatekeeper to help manage and protect the attorney’s time.
  • Screen, direct, and prioritize incoming calls and emails to lawyers.
  • Manage attorney email inbox.
  • Keep your legal team on track by monitoring and managing team adherence to deadlines.
  • Make travel arrangements for teammates.
  • Proofread and format Word documents, including using advanced features such as “styles” and pivot tables.
  • Act as a project manager to monitor and manage case deadlines, and support the team members responsible for meeting those deadlines.
  • File legal documents with the courts.
  • Communicate with clients, witnesses, experts, court representatives, mediators, and others to move cases forward.
  • Prepare damages summaries and complex spreadsheets.
  • Proactively add and manage information to files as new information comes in. Keep all documents and files organized.
  • Maintain strict confidentiality regarding client and firm information.
  • Other duties as assigned.
Qualifications:
  • Have at least 2 years prior experience as a legal assistant managing high-volume caseloads.
  • Hold an associate degree in a relevant field, such as business administration, office management, legal studies, or similar; OR hold a legal secretary certificate or certification from NALA, NALS, or a similar certifying national organization.
  • Pass a background check.
  • Have a valid driver’s license and means of transportation to and from the office and off-site meetings (within Kootenai/Bonner County).
  • Provide your own computer, high-speed internet connection, and any accessories for performing daily work.
  • Demonstrate exceptional written and verbal communication skills, as well as organizational and time management skills.
  • Be tech-savvy and enjoy learning new software and systems through experimentation and research.
  • Available outside normal working hours for occasional early morning or after-hours meetings, with at least one week advance notice.
Required Skills:
  • Excellent grammar and proofreading; Oxford comma is a must as well as two spaces between sentences.
  • Professional communication by phone, email, and in person.
  • Ability to maintain and juggle rapidly shifting priorities.
  • Ability to tell clients, teammates, and others “no,” and offer solutions.
  • Extremely organized.
  • Keen attention to detail.
  • Microsoft Word, including advanced features in formatting and use of styles.
  • Microsoft Excel and/or Google Sheets, including advanced formulas and pivot tables.
  • Google Calendar and Gmail.
