About Redstone Family Law

Redstone Family Law is a new family law practice in Red Deer built with a clear purpose: to provide thoughtful, strategic, and compassionate legal services to people navigating some of the most important challenges in their lives.

Our motto is simple

We see people, not files.

We are looking for a Paralegal / Legal Assistant who wants more than a traditional support role. This is an opportunity to join the practice at an early stage and play a meaningful role in helping build something ambitious from the ground up.

The Role The successful candidate will initially play an important role in client intake and the opening of new files. As the practice grows, the role will develop into broader legal support, including drafting, file management, billing coordination, and working with our bookkeeping support.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is organized, professional, personable, and interested in being part of a growing law practice.

The role is hybrid, with three days working in person and two days working from home.

Responsibilities

Responsibilities will include

- Handling initial client inquiries and conducting client intake
- Scheduling consultations and coordinating appointments
- Opening and organizing new client files
- Preparing and maintaining file documentation
- Assisting with correspondence and legal document preparation
- Drafting and formatting routine legal documents under lawyer direction
- Managing deadlines, follow-ups, and administrative tasks
- Coordinating billing and accounts receivable processes
- Working with the firm's bookkeeper on billing and accounting-related matters
- Maintaining accurate and organized electronic and physical files
- Communicating professionally with clients, opposing counsel, court offices, and other professionals
- Providing general administrative and practice support as required




- Contributing ideas and processes that help the practice operate efficiently as it grows

What We're Looking For The ideal candidate will have:

- Experience working in a legal office, preferably in family law
- Strong organizational and time-management skills
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Strong attention to detail
- Professional and compassionate client communication skills
- The ability to manage multiple priorities in a busy environment
- Confidence handling confidential and sensitive information
- A willingness to learn and take ownership of responsibilities
- A positive, team-oriented approach

Experience with legal drafting, legal billing, accounting coordination, Cosmolex, or other practice-management software is an asset. Paralegal education or equivalent legal administrative experience is preferred, but we are open to candidates with a strong combination of relevant experience and skills.

Why Join Redstone?
