Pay is $22 per hour for full-time. Part-time position is $21 per hour.

You will be helping in our office full or part-time (at least 18 hours a week). Your tasks will include some light bookkeeping / accounting (we’ll teach you, no experience required), and some office assistant / admin-type work, such as handling mail, scanning, filing, and emailing clients.

We help attorneys all over Texas set up new businesses for their clients. We help draft, file, and retrieve legal documents for them. Though Lawyer's Aid Service works for attorneys, we are not a placement firm or law firm.

You'll receive training based on detailed orientation guides, starting with the basics and moving up at your own pace. Other staff members will coach you and answer questions.

If you enjoy helping people, solving problems, and delivering accurate work product in a team environment and want to learn skills useful in administrative or bookkeeping work or a legal career, we're eager to receive your application!

Those who succeed best at Lawyer's Aid work enjoy detail-oriented work, helping people over the phone, solving problems, and being accurate. In particular, if you're a person who wants a career in the paralegal or bookkeeping areas or who simply loves medium-paced and fast-paced office work, we're eager to receive your application.

You'll receive training based on detailed reference guides, starting with the basics and moving up at your own pace.

Our workplace is a ground floor of eight offices with large windows. You'll be sharing an office with only 1-2 other people, but our staff moves between offices throughout the day, dependent upon the task at hand. The atmosphere is positive and collaborative. An associated law office where you may also work is six blocks away in West Campus.

Schedule changes are flexible, subject to the needs of the business. Work hours are scheduled between 8:00 am and 5:30 pm. Afternoon is emphasized, as that's when we are busiest.

We are looking for a bright person who is glad to pitch in and assist where needed, is adept with people and details, and has excellent spoken and written English. A four-year degree or some college is preferred. Academic achievements (grades, test scores, honors), writing ability and interest, and work achievements are important to us. This job is on-site.

505 West 15th Street, between Nueces and San Antonio, convenient to UT and ACC Rio Grande.
