Paralegal (Estate Planning) — Will Train the Right Person - Knoxville, TN
1 day ago
Job description
Who We Are
We're a small, growing estate planning firm that believes this work is personal. Our clients aren't "cases" - they're families making important decisions. We take time to get it right, we don't perform cookie-cutter planning, and we're honest with people (even when that means telling them not to do something).
We're known for being timely, thorough, and hands-on. Clients leave our office feeling relieved and grateful.
Why This Role Is a Great Opportunity
This is a key role supporting our small estate planning office. You'll learn legal workflow and document production in a firm where quality matters and your work makes a real difference. If you're coachable, detail-driven, and want a stable professional path, we can teach the right person.
We are open to hiring either:
- An experienced paralegal, or
- A "junior" paralegal candidate with strong aptitude and the right mindset
What You'll Do
- Draft, proofread, and finalize estate planning documents (templates provided; training available)
- Prepare and draft deeds using templates, ensuring property descriptions are transferred accurately
- Enter client data into our software precisely and consistently
- Organize and maintain digital and paper files (scanning, naming, saving to the right place)
- Assemble client binders/deliverables and confirm clients received what they need
- Track workflow steps and assist in moving our work forward expeditiously
- Communicate professionally with clients and support a smooth, calm client experience
- Help improve office systems and processes as we grow
What Success Looks Like - We'll train and coach you toward this level of independence:
- You are able to run our core processes confidently with minimal assistance, asking questions along the way while taking ownership of your work
- Your work is accurate, organized, and timely for our clients
- The office feels steady and supported because you're working a step ahead
What We're Looking For
Required
- Exceptionally detail-oriented
- Logical, organized, and process-oriented
- Business judgment and customer service orientation
- Coachable and eager to learn
- Strong written communication and proofreading skills
- Comfortable with routine, repeatable work while taking pride in doing it well
- Able to self-manage: sees what needs to happen next and follows through
Preferred (but not required)
- 1–3 years of experience in a law firm, professional office, or document-heavy role
- Exposure to estate planning documents, deeds, or legal software
- Demonstrated experience handling sensitive/confidential information
Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive compensation, based on experience
- Paid time off
- Full-time, in-office position (no remote)
Job Type: Full-time
Benefits:
- Paid time off
Application Question(s):
- How does this role fit into your short and long term career plans?
- Share a specific example of a time when getting the details right in your work has been important and how you managed it.
Education:
- Bachelor's (Preferred)
Ability to Commute:
- Knoxville, TN Preferred)
Work Location: In person
