• Someone action-oriented who is eager to embrace new opportunities and tough challenges with a sense of urgency, high energy, and enthusiasm.
• A flexible individual with the ability to not only work overtime (if needed)

What You Will Be Doing:

• Preparing and formatting appellate documents (records/appendices/briefs/motions).
• Arranging a variety of “job types” for serving and filing.
• Building up your knowledge of various Court rules and regulations.
• Communicating with our Sales department on jobs in house and any client issues.
• Building relationships with clients and adopting a flexibility for their needs.
• Communicating with clients effectively throughout the preparation stage, as well as the finalization stage of the appellate process.
• Providing clients with accurate information to properly format any and all documents.
• Working closely with our Production team to balance individual workflow.
