As a law firm administrator, you are responsible for the bookkeeping, human resources, and office management of a law firm. You oversee the staffing of non-attorney personnel, such as legal assistants and paralegals. Your job duties include pairing paralegals with attorneys, running payroll and managing the budget, ordering supplies, writing up contracts, and promoting the law firm. The exact nature of your job varies depending on the size of the law firm where you work. At large law firms, your responsibilities may be more specialized, while at small law firms they may encompass all aspects of office management.
