We are looking for a highly organized, detail-oriented professional with strong knowledge of family law who can manage multiple cases, anticipate attorney needs, and thrive in a remote environment.   

 

What You’ll Do:  

  • Manage family law cases from intake through resolution, including discovery, mediation, and trial preparation. Maintain organized electronic case files and ensure all deadlines are met.

  • Prepare and respond to discovery requests, compile and analyze financial disclosures, and assist with preparation of equitable distribution schedules.  

  • Maintain professional and responsive communication with clients, providing updates, gathering information, and ensuring they understand each stage of the case.  

  • Coordinate with court personnel, opposing counsel, mediators, and experts to facilitate hearings, mediation, and scheduling.  

  • Prepare exhibits, witness lists, trial binders, and related materials; assist attorneys during mediation and trial as needed.  

  • Manage calendars, track deadlines, and ensure case files and correspondence are accurately maintained.
