Real Estate Paralegal / Legal Assistant – Career Stability & Premier Benefits

Are you looking for a professional home where your hard work is rewarded with industry-leading benefits and decades of stability?

Our firm is a pillar of the local legal community, specializing in Real Estate, Estate Planning, and Civil Litigation. We aren't just a law firm; we are a mainstay for our clients and a long-term home for our staff—our most recent retirees celebrated 30 and 42 years with us. As we transition to a new generation of leadership, we are looking for two dedicated individuals to join our team.

The “Heads-Down” Advantage We value a focused, low-drama work environment. If you enjoy getting into a “flow state,” checking off a high-volume task list, and seeing the tangible results of your work in the form of successful real estate closings, you will thrive here.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

  • Unrivaled Security: Join a practice with deep roots and a consistent, high-volume workload.

  • Top-Tier Compensation: We offer a 37.5-hour work week with a competitive hourly rate that scales significantly with your experience level.

  • Lucrative Retirement & Healthcare: We take care of our own with 100% employer-paid health insurance and a 401k/profit-sharing plan that can reach a 10% total employer contribution.

  • True Work-Life Balance: We honor all federal holidays and frequently “bridge” holidays to give our team extended time with their families.

What We Need From You:

  • Mastery of Microsoft Word: You should be fast and accurate with templates and document formatting.

  • A Detailed Mind: You understand that in real estate law, the “little things” are the big things.

  • A “Team First” Attitude: You are ready to roll up your sleeves, whether that means drafting a complex deed or running a document to the bank.

Experience Level: We are open to both seasoned real estate paralegals (who can command top-of-market pay) and high-potential administrative professionals looking to be trained in the legal field.

Apply Today: Build your future on a foundation of stability. Join a firm that values your focus and rewards your loyalty.
