The ideal candidate requires minimal oversight when assigned a matter and must be diligent in terms of "working" the file and in keeping clients informed of progress on their matter. Familiarity with Electronic Filing is required as is an ability to work with others and to assist where needed. We work matters as a team and support each other on our cases.
