Let’s be clear here. We are a law firm. But we’re not just any law firm. We do law for small business. We’re all about helping small businesses navigate and avoid difficult problems. Our focus is also on helping new entrepreneurs get new businesses off the ground and assisting existing businesses in remaining safe and protected as they grow.

At L4SB (a brand of Slingshot), we measure our success by our client’s success. We endeavor to provide expedient, valuable, flexible, and cost effective services. We tailor service to the unique small business needs and believe together we can realize great things.

Our Paralegals are extremely well rounded, have incredible time management skills, love our clients, and want to see small businesses succeed!

What you will do:

This position is not a traditional Paralegal position and requires you to be comfortable talking to leads, finding out the needs of their small businesses and then pointing them in the direction of which of our offerings would be the best fit for their needs! This position is based in our transactional legal business, which is highly driven though flat-rate services ordered through our online offerings. We do things a little differently here to ensure that Small Businesses get what they need but don’t break the bank doing so.

  • Effectively handle complex orders and emails
  • Quickly process and analyze information to be able to make decisions and solve problems.

Qualifications:

  • Paralegal Certification is preferred, those with applicable job experience may be considered

  • Work well under minimal supervision, be self-motivated and a team player
  • Ability to excel in a high-pressure, fast paced –environment
