Berwins is looking for a “no ordinary” Legal Assistant to work alongside our lawyers in the Residential Property Team. Ideally the applicant should have experience of handling conveyancing cases in an Assistant capacity from start to completion and using a Conveyancing case management system, or as a minimum have experience of legal work.

The position would suit someone with a law degree or someone who is currently studying for a relevant law qualification, but qualifications are not essential if the candidate has significant relevant experience. Candidates should have excellent personal skills and enjoy dealing with people, as looking after our clients and interacting with third parties forms a core part of the role.

The successful candidate should also enjoy working as part of a team, be prepared to help other members of the team as necessary and actively contribute to the growth and success of the team as a whole

Principal responsibilities

- Day-to-day administration of the case file; ensuring that the matter progresses and the client is updated:

- Liaising with other professionals and institutions, such as Estate Agents, Mortgage brokers and Lenders;

- Completing relevant documentation, for example SDLT returns and associated documents;

- Using both general IT packages (MS Office) and our specialist Conveyancing software and case management system (Leap);

- Drafting simple legal documents (under supervision;)

- Any other general office duties..

Knowledge and experience

The Legal Assistant needs to have legal experience, be computer literate and be adept at using technology.

Skills and Qualities

- Excellent administrative skills;

- A high degree of competence with word processing packages and common business tools (such as Outlook) for both email and calendar;

- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills and be well-presented;

- Good listening skills and be able to demonstrate care and empathy towards clients;

- Team player, with willingness to help others and who shares information and knowledge to help deliver a joint outcome;

- Highly organised and methodical, with the ability to work to deadlines, manage time effectively and to prioritise conflicting objectives;

- Able to deal appropriately with confidential information;

- Accurate, with good attention to detail; have a professional and capable approach to your work;

- Relish the opportunity to take responsibility for tasks within your remit and to use your own initiative;

- Have a positive, “can do” attitude

- Desire to undertake training in order to promote personal and practice development

The Person

The key attributes for this role are:

- The ideal person will have previous experience within a law firm or come from a legal background such as having completed a Law Degree or the College of Law Final Examinations.

- You must be prepared to work flexibly as needed, with a strong desire to work within a team environment.
