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 Client Intake Champion
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.

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.
What You Bring to the Table: 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.
The Nitty‑Gritty & The Perks
