Détails du poste

About The Job Our client is looking for an experienced legal professional to work directly with a Partner and take a senior role in the day-to-day management of a busy family law litigation practice. This is not a traditional legal assistant position. We are looking for someone who can take ownership of a practice: manage files and deadlines, coordinate litigation matters, prepare and organize court materials, manage correspondence and scheduling, communicate confidently with clients and opposing offices, and keep a high-volume practice moving efficiently. The ideal candidate will have strong family law litigation experience, exceptional organization and judgment, and the ability to work independently with a Partner who handles complex and demanding files. The Role Would Be Well Suited To Someone Who has significant experience in family law litigation; understands Alberta court procedures and litigation deadlines; is exceptionally organized and proactive; can anticipate what needs to happen next rather than waiting for instructions; is comfortable managing a large and active file load; communicates professionally and confidently with clients, counsel and the courts; and wants a position with real responsibility, autonomy and long-term growth. This person will become an integral part of the Partner's practice and will be treated accordingly. Compensation will be competitive and commensurate with experience, with a strong package available for the right candidate. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced family law legal assistant who is ready for a more senior role, greater autonomy and a position where their contribution is genuinely important to the success of the practice.
