  • Conduct internet research as directed by attorneys.
  • Interact daily with other practice groups within the firm to help facilitate the highest possible legal support to attorneys and clients.
  • Establish and maintain electronic files in compliance with current firm policies using the firm’s document management system.
  • Team-based approach: Provide assistance to other legal assistants and paralegals to meet firm and client needs; organize and prioritize workload to enable and facilitate team effort to accomplish firm and client goals most efficiently.
  • Foster professional, cooperative, and supportive relationships with peers, supervisors, and clients.
  • Handle information that is highly confidential and sensitive and requires discretion and diplomacy.
  • Other general administrative duties and projects as assigned.

  • Commitment to providing excellent customer service
  • Ability to work in a team setting, including with people in different offices and on different teams
  • Strong interpersonal skills

Work Location and Hours:

While Atheria supports flexible working arrangements, including remote work, we believe that to optimize the understanding of our practice, work as a team, and best service our clients, in-person interaction is important. At this time, unless otherwise agreed upon, all employees are required to work in the office at least two days a week, or as otherwise needed, on Tuesdays and Thursday during the regular business hours of 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
