  • Strong time-management skills and the ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced environment

  • A proactive approach to problem-solving, learning, and client care

  • High-level communication skills with the ability to be clear and confident to clients, staff and external parties, whether in writing, over the phone or in person; giving advice that is both practical and solutions-oriented

  • Confidence in using digital systems and communicating clearly via phone and email

  • A team-first attitude, meaning you step up for clients and colleagues alike

  • A willingness to evolve, lead when needed, and contribute to making things better

  • (For more experienced lawyers) a readiness to supervise and mentor junior team members and help refine firm processes

  • (For more experienced lawyers) the preparedness to help improve processes and legal precedents of the firm
