Responsibilities
Gregory P. Helfrich & Associates, insurance staff counsel for State Farm Insurance Companies, is seeking a Legal Secretary to join our Summit, NJ CLC office. Responsibilities will include general duties supporting our litigation attorneys with medical records, discovery, e-filing, court and deposition calendars and pleadings/motions/routine correspondence. The most qualified candidates will have the ability to communicate effectively, work independently, and prioritize workload in a fast paced and time sensitive environment. Regular business hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. The selected candidate will spend time working in the office, but with limited work from home days (if desired) as part of a hybrid work arrangement.
