SUBMIT RESUME BY EMAIL. Seeking Secretary/Personal Assistant for an attorney in a wheelchair. My office is in my home and duties would be varied. Attendance is the most important function of the job as the job requires driving the attorney to appointments. Attendance is the most essential function of the job.

Office duties: Answering telephones and screening new clients, drafting documents (depending on experience), filing, corresponding with clients and counsel, ordering office supplies, general office duties, scanning and downloading documents, keeping court dates and deadlines calendared, assisting with tracking court dates; Locating vendors for the office as the need arises and working with existing vendors, assisting with billing and tracking billing matters, Drive attorney to and from court and assist while at court. Court may be in Franklin or Fairfield County, mostly Franklin. Days that we have to appear at the courthouse are infrequent, instead I mostly attend by zoom, but hours may have to be flexible on those days. Work day ends early if it starts early so not a lot of overtime.

Personal assistant duties: I have two dogs, golden retriever and chihuaha, so DEFINITELY need a dog lover, or neither employee or employer will be comfortable. Examples of personal assistant duties: Make coffee and bring some to attorney, let the dogs in and out of the house, assist with taking them to the vet, taking a medium size kennel (with tiny dog in it) upstairs when meeting with client. Other examples of personal assistant duties: drive me to appointments, put wheelchair in and out of van, run errands, (such as take my son to school, get lunch or things needed for home or office, help find contractors to care for house or yard, etc.). Personal assistant duties are at least half the job, and this will not change over time. This will never become a job that is primarily a desk job.
