This position is intended for candidates with consistent experience in law firms, particularly in litigation. Applicants without relevant legal background will not be considered.

  • Maintain case files, court dockets, and deadlines with accuracy and attention to detail
  • Assist with document production, exhibits, and trial preparation
  • Communicate professionally with clients, courts, opposing counsel, and vendors
  • Manage attorney calendars and schedule depositions, hearings, and meetings
  • Provide reliable administrative support to litigation attorneys

What We're Looking For

  • Significant experience working in a litigation-focused role within a law firm is required
  • Knowledge of court filing procedures and civil litigation processes
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
  • Clear and professional communicator, both verbally and in writing
  • Dependable, detail-oriented, and efficient under pressure
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook); familiarity with court e-filing systems and document management software is preferred

Why Join Us?

At Wright Beamer, you'll join a supportive, professional team where your work matters. We value integrity, collaboration, and the role each team member plays in delivering exceptional service to our clients.

Position Details

  • Full-time, in-office position
  • High school diploma or GED required; some college or business school coursework preferred
  • Stable work history in a professional legal setting is essential
  • Long-term administrative support role; not a stepping stone to a legal practice position
