What are the responsibilities and job description for the Experienced Legal Assistant/Front Desk position at Law Office of Megha K. Patel, LLC?
Legal Assistant / Front Desk Coordinator — Law Office of Megha K. Patel, LLC
North Brunswick, NJ | Full-Time, In-Office
We're looking for an experienced legal assistant to be the first point of contact for our clients and a key part of how our firm runs day to day.
The Law Office of Megha K. Patel, LLC is a boutique, flat-fee transactional firm handling real estate, business law, and estate planning matters. We built our practice around clear communication and a client experience that feels personal, not transactional — and we need someone who shares that mindset.
What you'll do:
- Serve as the first point of contact for clients — phone, email, and in-office visits
- Manage scheduling, intake, and client file organization
- Support attorney and paralegal with document preparation and client coordination
- Help keep our office running smoothly, from correspondence to deadline tracking
- Represent the firm's tone and professionalism in every client interaction
What we're looking for:
- Prior experience in a legal assistant, paralegal support, or front desk/office coordinator role (law firm experience strongly preferred)
- Strong organizational skills and comfort managing multiple priorities
- Excellent written and verbal communication
- A proactive, detail-oriented approach — someone who takes ownership rather than waiting to be told
- Comfortable with legal practice management and office software (we'll train on our specific systems)
Why join us: We're a small, growing team where your work is visible and valued. You will gain first hand experience and help shape how we serve our clients.
