Description
Mitchell & Associates, APLC is seeking a full-time Legal Administrative Assistant to manage the Front Desk and serve as the primary point of contact for clients, callers, visitors, and incoming communications at our New Orleans law office.
This is more than a traditional receptionist position. The Front Desk is responsible for keeping the front of the office organized and responsive while handling important administrative functions involving client communications, court filings, outgoing correspondence, and office operations.
We are looking for someone who takes ownership of their responsibilities. If a client sends a question you cannot answer, you find the person who can provide the answer and make sure the client receives it. If a case-related package arrives while the person who normally handles it is out, you make sure it gets handled. If office supplies are running low, you address it before we run out. The right person will be organized, responsive, professional, dependable, and willing to ask questions when necessary rather than allowing something to sit unresolved.
