🔑 Your Role:

As a Legal Assistant, you will support attorneys and paralegals across a full caseload — handling client communication, document preparation, correspondence, and case administration with accuracy and urgency. Your day-to-day will involve:

  • Preparing, formatting, and organizing legal documents, correspondence, and case files in line with firm and court standards.
  • Communicating regularly with clients — providing status updates, gathering information, and ensuring clients feel supported throughout their case.
  • Managing case calendars — tracking deadlines, filing dates, hearings, and follow-up tasks to ensure nothing is missed.
  • Coordinating with courts, opposing counsel, vendors, and third parties to gather information and keep cases moving forward.
  • Maintaining organized, accurate, and confidential client and case files within the firm's case management system.
  • Drafting routine correspondence and supporting attorneys with case preparation, filings, and administrative tasks as needed.
  • Handling incoming calls and inquiries professionally, routing matters appropriately, and keeping attorneys informed of priority items.

✅ What You'll Need:

  • 3+ years of experience as a legal assistant in a law firm setting — any practice area considered.
  • Familiarity with legal case management software such as Clio, Filevine, MyCase, or similar platforms.
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple cases and deadlines simultaneously without losing accuracy.
  • Excellent written and verbal English communication skills — you communicate clearly and professionally with clients, courts, and opposing counsel.
  • Proactive, detail-oriented, and comfortable working independently in a fast-paced remote environment.
  • Bonus: experience with e-filing systems and litigation support processes.
  • Bonus: experience across multiple practice areas or a willingness to adapt quickly to a firm's specific area of law.
  • To be considered for this role, you must be currently based in Latin America (LATAM) or Europe.

💼 What We Offer:

  • 💸 Competitive salary in USD — paid consistently every month, no matter where you are.
  • 🌴 10 paid vacation days per year plus all U.S. federal holidays.
  • 💻 100% remote — work from anywhere in LATAM or Europe with a professional home setup.
  • 📈 A stable, organized legal environment where your reliability and attention to detail directly support the firm's success.
  • 🤝 A supportive, collaborative culture through Veta Virtual and our client — where your experience and follow-through are valued from day one.
