With about 30 lawyers on staff, this is one of the biggest and most well established law firms in Vancouver. Right now, they need an experienced corporate/commercial legal administrative assistant to work from their gorgeous downtown office. You will be mainly supporting a lawyer who specializes in estate planning, including wills and trusts, as well as corporate law, with an emphasis on reorganizations and business planning. But that’s not all! This busy position also provides assistance to an associate whose practice includes corporate reorganizations and successions, IPO’s, acquisitions, financings, TSX compliance matters, as well as estate planning and wealth preservation.

Requirements

Strong organizational skills are required to work with this high-performing team and their valued clients. If you are a corporate/commercial dynamo who is seeking a challenge and thrives in a fast-paced environment, then this could be a great opportunity to use your acquired skills in drafting legal documents and correspondence. There is lots of paperwork too, so you will have to be on the ball to keep up with everything that comes across your desk. Keeping an eye on the lawyers’ calendars and managing day-to-day BF’s will keep you on your toes. Ideally, you will also have an internal radar system that alerts you to what is coming up so that you can anticipate what needs to be done next. You will have direct contact with clients on the phone and in writing so your client relations skills must be superb. What is also helpful in working with these great lawyers is a sense of humour.
