The Long Law Firm is seeking a part-time legal secretary to handle calendaring, answering phones, filing, mail, organization and some basic legal tasks. This is somewhat of a "jack-of-all-trades" position which we would like to grow into a full-time position by the end of the year. We cannot guarantee full-time, but that is the goal.

This could be a great position for someone who requires a flexible work schedule. No experience is required, but a "can-do" attitude and ability to take on new challenges is important.

This is a very small office (for now). Please be a person that is pleasant to be around.

The roles and duties of this position can be divided in roughly three categories:

• Firm Admin
• Case Management
• Intake / Sales / Marketing

The firm admin work involves assisting the managing partner in running the business of the firm. This includes assisting with incoming and outgoing invoices, basic HR functions, and assisting with various miscellaneous, non-client work.

The Case Management portion involves onboarding clients, scheduling and handling the firm's calendar, filing and general organization of the litigation practice. Experience with legal billing is a big plus, but not a requirement.

On the Intake and Sales side of things, the work will include assisting with intake of new clients, starting from taking incoming calls, triaging those potential clients, and working with the managing partner to schedule consultations. If you have familiarity with social media, you may also be asked to manage the firm's instagram and facebook pages.

Qualifications:

• must have the requisite "people" skills to handle incoming phone calls;
• must be proficient with Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel and other standard office software;
• must exhibit excellent attention to detail;
• must be willing to learn new software and systems as the firm grows;
• must have good organizational skills;
• must be willing to learn new skills;
• must be a friendly, helpful person who is engaged in their work and eager to complete the team's mission;

Perks:

• health insurance plan, dental, and a retirement account with a partial matching contribution from the firm;
• we are firmly committed to treating every member of our team with the respect they deserve; that includes staff;
• training is treated as necessary and important, rather than an after-thought;
• no office politics; good work is rewarded;
• nearby parking;
• lots of restaurants and lunch spots nearby;
• beautiful historic office building;
• extremely flexible for the right person, we are committed to building something really special in Syracuse and want team members who are willing to put the work in;
• willing to accommodate team members to help you do your job better, if you need something, tell us, and let's figure out how to make it happen;
• we don't care whether you are into knitting at home or singing in a punk-metal ska band. We don't judge. Just do good work, go home when you are done, and be yourself.
• The Long Law Firm, PLLC welcomes all people, regardless of race, color, national origin, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, or disability and proudly supports everyone who believes in the freedom to be themselves.

If you are interested in this position, please email a cover letter and your resume to jlong@long.law. Please include a fun fact about yourself. (This is last part is designed to determine whether you read the whole job posting and exhibit good attention to detail, the substance of the "fun fact" isn't actually important.)
