Job Title: Legal Assistant/Receptionist

Georgetown, DE

We are currently seeking a Legal Assistant/Receptionist to bring unparalleled support to our clients and team. If you:

• thrive in a fast-paced and exciting work environment
• strive to provide superior support to our attorneys and staff
• are passionate about delivering an exemplary client experience
• consistently surpass expectations and deliver exceptional work and service
• embrace an unwavering standard of excellence, integrity, compassion and accessibility

Then we want to hear from you!

What You Can Expect:

We are seeking a meticulous, proactive, and highly organized Legal Assistant/Receptionist to join our growing team. In this position, you'll be instrumental in supporting our attorneys and legal staff firm-wide in all our practice areas. This role offers the chance to be part of a solid foundation of a rapidly growing firm and allows you the opportunity to meaningfully contribute to the firm’s quality client service.

Here’s an example of what our Legal Assistant/Receptionist might do in a day:

- Client Care and Communication: You're our first stop for clients in many different facets. You will be responsible for answering the phones, speaking with clients to gather case-related information, complete intakes, answer questions, and direct our clients accordingly. You will also welcome our clients when they arrive at our office and provide the utmost hospitality as they await their appointment. We are seeking a warm, friendly, professional individual to help us put our best foot forward with anyone who comes in contact with our office.

- Administrative Support: Law firms are bustling hubs of activity and ours is no different. You will be our administrative extraordinaire responsible for a wide range of administrative tasks. Some examples include copying, scanning, filing (both digital and physical), scheduling and calendar management, mail, etc. We are looking for a team player who is adept at handling many different tasks with ease.

- Case Management Assistance: Our team does a phenomenal job juggling all aspects of their cases, but we all can use a little help at times, right? Sometimes, you may be called on to provide limited legal support to the staff. Tracking down documents, following up with clients or other entities, requesting status updates, or even just general file organizing. These are some examples of the support tasks we would need your assistance with. And don’t worry if you don’t have experience in our niche area of needs. Someone with an open mind and a willingness to learn is just as helpful.

What We Will Ask of You:

- Commitment to Law Office of Trapp Nicholl and the clients we serve.

- Willing to go the extra mile for our team members and clients.

- A positive, friendly, and empathetic attitude.

- Proactive and forward-thinking mindset.

- An eagerness to learn and adapt.

- Our firm is flourishing, so we need someone who is:

• Experience in a Plaintiff Personal Injury or Estate Planning Firm would be helpful but is not required
• Reliable and team-oriented
• An excellent written and verbal communicator
• The ability to work independently, but also works well as part of a team
• Organization, attention to detail, and ability to prioritize tasks
• Self-motivated and takes initiative without constant direction
• Technical proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite
• Available M-F 8:30 – 4:30

Why Law Office of Trapp Nicholl?

- Collaborative Work Environment: We truly believe a rising tide lifts all boats, so we’ve cultivated a work environment where all can learn and succeed. Our team works together to help one another serve our clients with the highest quality of service.

- Work/Life Balance: As our newest team member, you’re important to us, but we recognize that you’re important in other areas of your life as well. We respect your time outside of the workplace as much as we appreciate your contributions inside of it.

- Perks and Pay: Pay is commensurate with experience, but don’t fret, no experience, no worries! We will work with you and your pay will grow as you gain experience and skills. Remember when we said we respect your time? We are proud to offer a generous PTO package including paid holidays, (yes, even your birthday because we believe there’s always a reason to celebrate you!) flexible time, and vacation days.
