Bilingual Legal Assistant

Legal Assistant Bilingual, Haitian Creole and/or Spanish
Fast-paced and growing family, Immigration Law Firm seeks an experienced, detail-oriented, highly-organized, assertive, self-confident, emotionally mature, and self-directed person to work full time from our Chandler office. Personal and professional discretion is a must.
Excellent communication skills, verbal and written. Part of your job will be to function as the “hub” of our busy office and pitch in to lend a hand when needed.
Our Legal Assistant is a regular voice with the clients. Your recommendations and ideas for how to improve the operations of the law firm will be given real consideration. Your contributions will be appreciated.
The candidate we seek has the intelligence, imagination, and experience to “see around corners” with thick enough skin and enough backbone not to take constructive criticism personally. Absolutely no “toxic” personalities are permitted onto our team. This is to protect the sanity of the owner of the firm as well as all the members of the team and the clients, too. If you are the right candidate this should come as welcome news to you
The successful candidate will be able to work hard, maintain a positive attitude, make well-thought-out suggestions at the appropriate times, and follow agreed policies and procedures in between. The right candidate should have the experience to anticipate what a busy attorney’s personal and professional needs are likely to be and the flexibility to grow and adapt to the job, knowing that every day brings with it a new adventure in a busy law firm.
We are looking for a long-term relationship with the right candidate. He or she should be a thoughtful and detail-oriented person, with a professional appearance, good personal hygiene, extremely organized, and a high degree of personal pride for a job well done. At this law firm, we like to work hard, get the job done and then enjoy having a life outside of the office as our reward. Not the other way around.
Please be very Word, email, and Excel proficient. The person we’re looking for understands that law firms must bill clients in order for any of us (including you) to get paid, and will be enthusiastic about being sure this critical function of our business gets the attention it deserves, on a timely basis and is done accurately.
You should be able to demonstrate good judgment, the ability to prioritize your activities with minimal supervision to meet deadlines and coordinate cheerfully with your fellow team members to get the job done without bickering over brownie points because we don’t play that game in this firm. Experience with Bill4time, Infusionsoft, and PowerPoint is a plus.
Professional decorum with a good sense of humor. We take our business very seriously around here but not ourselves. We like to have fun and we want our Legal Assistant/Legal Secretary to think his or her job is pretty great too
Above-average ability to learn and adapt as our business grows and takes on new dimensions. The successful candidate should know how to “get things done” with minimal supervision and doesn’t watch the clock…ever In fact, we’d love to find a proactive individual who can see the big picture and then make recommendations for all the nitty-gritty details to make things better instead of waiting around for instructions.

This can be the best job you ever had or the most frustrating depending on your flexibility, team spirit, commitment to our mission, and realistic expectations about what it’s like to work in a fast-paced growing law firm.
This is a full-time position but with flexibility and freedom earned by your figuring out how to get things done. You need to run to the doctor, take care of some personal business, or even go out of town for a family emergency on short notice? No problem so long as you take responsibility for things getting done. This is a double-edged sword for slackers but we imagine great news for the right candidate.
