Truce Law is hiring: Office Assistant in Seattle
Truce Law, Seattle, WA, United States, 98127
Description
Truce Law is looking for a part-time Office Assistant to provide daily support to our administrative team from our new office overlooking the canal in Seattle's Fremont neighborhood.
Our law firm sets itself apart by marketing to clients who are looking for a low-conflict collaborative divorce, with contested divorce cases being a last option at our firm. If you've experienced the fallout from a truly contested family law matter, you'll understand how valuable an amicable approach can be for a family.
If you can see yourself fitting in with a group of legal professionals working with clients who are interested in settling their family issues peacefully through negotiation, Truce Law is the place for you.
As an Office Assistant, you'll work closely with the legal team handling all incoming mail and outgoing mail requests, which can have strict deadlines. Our clients and legal team will lean on you to be reliable, as running the mail in a law firm is a critical function. In addition, you'll take the lead on initiatives to welcome people to the firm, such as sending new client Welcome Packages and sending handwritten Thank You Cards to clients as their cases conclude (Excellent penmanship is a plus). When people visit the office, you'll welcome them and ensure that they're taken care of with food and refreshments. We'll also ask you to be creative and help us design firm-branded SWAG, which we'll share with the team.
Our team loves working for Truce Law because of our relaxed atmosphere, and our focus on collaborative law, which means our attorneys and staff aren't regularly facing the kinds of higher conflict cases (and the associated stress involved). This position has the ability to become full time and we believe in developing and promoting from within our firm, so there are opportunities for growth. Finally, we have a diverse staff from around the world (and if you like board games at Mox, we'll see you at a team game night!).
Apply with confidence; your application will be kept completely confidential.
