About The Firm

CLS Law is an aggressive personal injury litigation firm which only represents injury victims. We handle complex cases, generally including auto accidents, premise liability matters, and select medical malpractice cases. We also maintain a small docket, enabling us to best serve our clients and to ensure they receive exceptional results from the office to the courtroom. Our clients expect top-notch representation and that is exactly what we provide. The firm regularly litigates cases involving catastrophic injury and wrongful death, but also accepts minor injury cases and builds them to win.

Our work environment includes:

  • Growth opportunities
  • Flexible working hours
  • On-the-job training

We're hiring a self-motivated Legal Assistant to join our team who will focus their efforts on keeping the office running efficiently, working files, and interacting with clients. This position requires someone who is organized, communicates well with both clients and opposing attorneys, is an excellent writer, and can provide administrative support with an eye for detail. The firm primarily interacts with insurance adjusters, insurance defense lawyers, and large (often sophisticated) corporate defendants. We make it a priority to maintain quality professional relationships and to treat everyone that contacts the office with courtesy and kindness. Hence, the ideal candidate should be friendly, accomodating, and operate well under stress.
