At Halligan LLC, we know that behind every successful attorney and every relieved client is a world-class Legal Assistant (Chaos Coordinator). We aren't looking for someone to just sit behind a desk; we’re looking for a high-energy "Director of First Impressions" and "Chief Logistics Officer" rolled into one. In family law, clients are often going through their hardest days. We need a professional who can bring order to the chaos, keep the legal team humming, and make sure our attorneys are exactly where they need to be with exactly what they need. Why You’ll Love Working Here • A Culture of Respect: We don’t treat "support staff" like an afterthought. You are the backbone of this firm, and you’ll be treated as such. • Work-Life Integration: We’re in Colorado for a reason. We offer flexible scheduling and remote-work options because we know you have a life outside the office. • Modern Workspace: No dusty filing cabinets here. We use top-tier tech to keep things efficient and paperless. • Comprehensive Benefits: Competitive pay, health/dental/vision insurance, 401(k), and plenty of PTO. Responsibilities: The Role: How You’ll Make an Impact This role focuses on client experience, administrative excellence, and firm flow. You’ll spend less time drafting legal briefs and more time: • Being the Face of the Firm: Welcoming clients (virtually or in-person) with a mix of professionalism and genuine empathy. • Managing the Pulse: Owning the master calendar—scheduling mediations, hearings, and client meetings across multiple time zones. • Workflow Logistics: Coordinating mail, managing digital files, and ensuring the attorneys have their "war rooms" ready for trial. • Gatekeeping: Managing high volumes of calls and emails, prioritizing what’s urgent, and keeping the attorneys focused on the law. Qualifications: What We’re Looking For • The "Vibe": You are unflappable. When a client is stressed or a deadline is looming, you are the calmest person in the room. • Communication Mastery: You write professional, warm emails and can speak to anyone from a judge’s assistant to a nervous parent. • Tech Literacy: You’re a pro with Google Suite, Slack, Lawmatics, PracticePanther, Asana, and Zoom, and you aren’t afraid to learn new practice management software. • Colorado Savvy: A basic understanding of the Colorado legal landscape is a plus, but your organizational talent is what we value most. Compensation: $50,000 - $58,000 yearly
