Legal Assistant
Salary: $65,000–$72,000+, commensurate with experience


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:



  • Join a premier, well-established law firm in a convenient Norwalk/Westport border location

  • Work closely with multiple attorneys, gaining broad exposure to corporate and transactional matters

  • Predictable, reasonable office hours (8:30–5:00 or 9:00–5:00) — no late nights or unpredictable overtime

  • Take ownership of new client set-up, giving you visibility into the front end of client relationships

  • Build skills across billing, conflict checks, and client/matter systems

  • Competitive salary commensurate with your experience level

  • Opportunity to be trusted with confidential, high-stakes information


Key Responsibilities for the Legal Assistant:



  • Support several attorneys with document typing/formatting and transcription

  • Maintain client files and coordinate meetings, appointments, and conference calls

  • Enter attorney time into the billing system

  • Prepare new client set-up, including conflict checks and new file/matter entry


Qualifications for the Legal Assistant:



  • 3–5 years of law firm experience

  • Corporate law experience preferred; transactional experience a plus

  • Proficient with MS Office (Word/Excel/Outlook) and Adobe

  • Detail-oriented, organized, and able to multi-task in a fast-paced environment
