Location: Fully Remote – Florida 

About the Role

Are you a sharp, detail-driven legal professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment — and wants the flexibility of working from anywhere in Florida? We're looking for an Administrative Legal Assistant to serve as the right hand to a Partner in our Workers' Compensation practice.

This is not a background role. You'll be at the center of a high-volume practice — managing deadlines, coordinating complex schedules, producing critical legal documents, and serving as a key liaison between internal teams and external counsel. The position is structured as approximately 50% billable legal work and 50% administrative support, meaning your days are varied, substantive, and directly tied to client outcomes.

Essential Functions
  • Manage and maintain the Partner's calendar, proactively anticipating scheduling conflicts and priorities
  • Schedule and coordinate hearings, depositions, mediations, and field inspections across multiple parties
  • Liaise professionally with opposing and outside counsel, clients, mediators, and vendors
  • Draft correspondence, legal documents, and case materials with accuracy and rigorous attention to detail
  • Calendar and track all deadlines, hearings, depositions, and mediations — ensuring nothing falls through the cracks
  • Act as point of contact and resource for all adminisrtative functions for the Partner's Unit
  • Manage a high case count — organizing tasks, monitoring calendar accuracy, and ensuring all matters are addressed on time
  • Support discovery processes, scheduling, and client communications as the practice demands
  • Provide coverage and assistance to other legal assistants as opportunities arise, maintaining team continuity and quality
Qualifications
  • Prior experience as a legal assistant, paralegal, or comparable legal support role — Workers' Compensation background strongly preferred
  • Demonstrated proficiency managing complex attorney calendars and deadline-driven workflows
  • Strong command of legal document drafting, formatting, and Florida filing procedures
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills for coordinating with counsel, clients, and vendors
  • Highly organized with the ability to independently manage competing priorities in a fully remote environment
  • Familiarity with Florida court procedures, e-filing systems, and legal practice management software
  • Discretion and professionalism when handling sensitive and confidential matters
  • Ability to perform billable legal support tasks with accuracy and accountability
  • Reliable home office setup with a strong, stable internet connection
Why Join Us
  • 100% Remote – Florida-Wide: Work from anywhere in the state. No commute, no micromanagement — we trust you to deliver.
  • Meaningful, Billable Work: Half your role is billable legal support. You're a genuine partner to a practice lead, not just an administrator.
  • Variety Every Day: Cross-team collaboration with Office Services and exposure to all facets of Workers' Compensation law keeps your skills growing.
  • Supportive Culture: Clear direction, a collaborative team, and a firm that values precision and people equally.
