Legal Secretary - Trust & Estates
Join a close-knit, family-oriented law office where your expertise and independence truly make an impact. We are seeking a skilled Trust & Estate Planning Legal Assistant to work directly with an experienced attorney in a highly autonomous role. This position offers the unique opportunity to take ownership of the drafting process from initial client input to final documents while benefiting from a supportive environment, flexible culture, and meaningful long-term client work. If you thrive working independently and enjoy precision, responsibility, and trust, this is the opportunity for you.
Key Responsibilities:
- Draft comprehensive estate planning documents including trusts, wills, healthcare directives, powers of attorney, HIPAA forms, and LLC/operating agreements based on attorney memos and client needs.
- Work independently with minimal oversight, managing assignments end-to-end-from initial draft to final revisions-while responding confidently to attorney emails, voicemails, and instructions.
- Utilize legal and office technology such as WordPerfect, Abacus, and (optionally) HotDocs, with strong emphasis on word processing and document accuracy.
- Contribute to a collaborative small-office environment, no calendar management, and a focus on long-term stability.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, national origin, age, ancestry, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, marital status, disability, medical condition, genetic information, pregnancy, or military or veteran status. We consider all qualified applicants, including those with criminal histories, in a manner consistent with state and local laws, including the California Fair Chance Act, City of Los Angeles' Fair Chance Initiative for Hiring Ordinance, and Los Angeles County Fair Chance Ordinance.
