Part Time Legal Administrative Assistant

Part Time Legal Administrative Assistant

Are you a master of details, a champion of client communication, and someone who gets a genuine thrill from a well‑organized case file? If you're nodding your head and looking for a flexible, mostly remote, part‑time role where you can make a real impact, then we want to hear from you!

A Charleston‑based law firm is seeking a Legal Administrative Assistant to be the backbone of its client intake and case management process. You'll be the friendly first point of contact for potential clients, the wizard behind the curtain keeping our cases moving smoothly, and a vital part of a team dedicated to getting results. This role is part time, anticipating 20‑30 hours per week, possibly more.

You’ll wear many hats, but your mission will be clear: to support the attorneys and provide an exceptional client experience from start to finish.

• Manage the frontline of communication, pre‑screening new leads via phone, email, and our website.
• Conduct detailed and empathetic intake interviews to understand client needs and determine case viability.
• Seamlessly guide new clients through our onboarding process, helping them with forms and gathering key documents like driver's licenses, signed agreements, and HIPAA forms.
• Schedule consultations, send out intake packages, and follow up with friendly reminders to keep the process on track.

• Become an expert in our case management system (CMS), ensuring all client data and intake records are meticulously accurate.
• Take charge of requesting, tracking, and organizing crucial documents like police reports, medical records, and medical bills.
• Handle the logistics of filing, mailing, and tracking important court documents and motions.
• Coordinate schedules for hearings, depositions, and mediations, ensuring all parties are informed.

• Gain hands‑on experience drafting a wide range of legal documents, including:
• Discovery requests and responses.
• Subpoenas, spoliation letters, and FOIA requests.
• Pleadings, motions, and affidavits.
• Client correspondence and settlement demand packages.

• An almost supernatural sense of organization and attention to detail.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with a knack for empathy and professionalism.
• A proactive, problem‑solving mindset—you don’t wait to be told what to do next.
• Absolute discretion and the ability to handle confidential information.

• Position: Part‑Time Legal Administrative Assistant, 20‑30 hours per week.
• Flexibility: Free to work from home most of the time.
• Experience: Gain substantive, hands‑on experience in the legal field.

If you’re ready to ditch the traditional office grind for a flexible role where your contributions are valued and your potential for growth is in your hands, we encourage you to apply!
