About us
Yaletown Law is a boutique firm in the heart of Yaletown with a busy corporate and estates practice. We're a collegial, low-drama team that takes our clients' work seriously and each other's time seriously too.
The role
We're looking for an experienced Senior Legal Assistant to support our corporate and estates lawyers. This is a hands-on role for someone who already knows their way around a minute book and a probate application and doesn't need hand-holding on process.

- Handle incorporations, annual reports, and filings through BC Registries / Corporate Online
- Prepare and file probate and estate administration applications under WESA, including grant applications and supporting materials
- Draft, format, and proofread correspondence and legal documents to a high standard
- Manage lawyers' calendars, limitation dates, and filing deadlines
- Liaise professionally and discreetly with clients, courts, and registries
- Open, organize, and maintain files in PCLaw
What you bring
- 5+ years as a legal assistant, with real corporate and/or estates experience (both is ideal)
- Legal administrative assistant diploma or equivalent experience
- Sharp proofreading and document-formatting skills; genuine attention to detail
- Strong organization and the judgment to manage competing deadlines
- Discretion with confidential and family-sensitive matters
- Comfort with MS Office, ALF, Clio, etc.
