Toronto, ON | Full-Time | In Person
About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Law Clerk or Legal Assistant to provide support across the practice. This role is well suited to someone who enjoys variety, can confidently manage multiple files and deadlines, and wants to broaden their experience across different areas of law.
The Opportunity
Working in a small practice provides exposure beyond one specific area of law. You'll work across real estate, family law and litigation, interact directly with clients, and be involved in files from opening through completion.

- Communicate with clients, opposing counsel, financial institutions and other parties
- Assist with client intake and gather required information and documentation
- Conduct legal research as required
- Coordinate appointments, meetings and day-to-day file administration

- Experience preparing, reviewing and proofreading legal documents and correspondence
- Strong file management, organization and deadline management skills
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Comfortable communicating directly with clients and external parties
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office and legal practice or document management software
