Job DescriptionJob Description

Bilingual Legal Assistant (Spanish)



We are a fast-growing law firm founded by forward-thinking entrepreneurial lawyers. We are looking to hire an experienced full-time Legal Assistant, with a minimum of 1 year of experience as a Bankruptcy Legal Assistant in a consumer bankruptcy law firm.

 

We are looking for an “A+” player with the talent to help us expand our entrepreneurial business. You will need to bring a high level of energy, positivity, and a can-do attitude to work every day.


Skills and experience are required and valued, but attitude, character, personality, and integrity are also important. The ideal candidate will have a growth mindset, an ability to relate to people in crisis, and a good sense of humor. High-maintenance, humorless, or self-important individuals will not succeed in this position and should not apply.


This is an opportunity to grow with our firm. For the right person, this is a career opportunity – not just a job. Your contributions will be recognized, appreciated, and rewarded. If you are motivated by overcoming challenges, and personal, professional, and financial growth, then this could be the right place for you.


The Legal Assistant position is full-time, so you MUST be able to work in person in our Fort Lauderdale office 40 hours per week. Some of the benefits include health insurance, vision insurance, dental insurance, retirement, and PTO.

 

 

Please do not apply if:

 

  • You can’t set priorities and follow instructions
  • You don’t have a sense of humor
  • You think returning calls is an “interruption”
  • You think making coffee is beneath you
  • You can’t find the compassion and empathy to want to be helpful to our clients and attorneys


Do you think you have what it takes to be our next superstar?


To apply and ensure you make a great first impression, please send an email to Careers@lss.law. The subject line of the email must be your last name in all caps, followed by a hyphen and the phrase “Legal Assistant”. Include:

 

  1. Your resume, including your work history (most recent first) with all-time gaps explained.
  2. An introduction about your experience and some examples of how you handled a good situation and bad situation.
  3. References (they will be contacted later in the process)

 

We will contact you within 3 days if you qualify for the second round of consideration.


We look forward to hearing more about you.
