• Competitive compensation based on experience, with opportunity for performance-based bonuses.
• A supportive team culture where your contributions are valued and your growth is encouraged.
• Opportunities for professional development and advancement within a fast-growing firm.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Assist with estate and trust administration, including the preparation of pleadings, inventories and accountings.
• Maintain and organize client files with extreme precision, ensuring accuracy and confidentiality.
• Proactively communicate with clients to gather necessary information, answer inquiries, and provide updates on case progress.
• Coordinate appointments, meetings and court appearances for attorneys.
• Take ownership of learning our practice areas and contribute to improving workflows, systems, and processes as our firm grows.

Qualifications

• Growth Mindset: High coachability and an eager willingness to master probate and trust administration.
• Precision: exceptional attention to detail, proofreading, and organizational skills.
• Experience: Prior experience in estate planning and probate administration is a big plus, but a proven track record of high achievement and quick learning is what matters most.
• Education: Associate or Bachelor's degree in Legal Studies, Paralegal Studies (or related field) OR an equivalent of 2+ years or relevant legal probate experience.
