What is it like working as a Legal Assistant?
August 2015
Stress levels, additional responsibilities.

Do not be an 'over-achiever' in the beginning.
Do not offer to perform 'extra' duties outside the office.
August 2015
Work Flexibility.
Legal Assistant:
Pros: I am good at what I do. I can work from home if I need to.

July 2015
Challenges of the job keep it exciting.
Legal Assistant:
Learn -- learn -- learn -- you are most valuable to a law firm when you are bendable and can fill in any position at a moments notice. Knowledge is a powerful thing.

Under paid and no appreciation.

April 2015
Pretty Okay I guess.
Legal Assistant:
Pros: I love working with the clients to make them feel as though they are important and respected. I love knowing the clients by name/case.
Cons: The boss is not the easiest person to work for, and I get a lot of pushback from other people (IE, medical providers, etc. When requesting clients' medical records).
