What I'm looking for

I seek a role providing executive legal support or paralegal work where I can manage estates, support litigation, and assist senior attorneys in a collaborative, detail-focused environment.

I am an LLB graduate and experienced executive legal assistant who provides meticulous administrative and litigation support to senior attorneys. I have hands-on experience drafting legal documents, managing case files, and coordinating hearings across family, civil and commercial matters.

In practice-based roles I administered deceased estates, liaised with the Master of the High Court and managed liquidation and distribution accounts, ensuring accurate valuations and compliance with the Administration of Estates Act.

I contributed to litigation by conducting legal research, preparing affidavits, and supporting trial preparation for matters including divorce, eviction, medical negligence and commercial disputes. I also coordinated consultations, mediations and client communication, maintaining confidentiality and strong professional ethics.

I am proficient in Microsoft Office and LexisNexis, comfortable with remote work, and thrive as a dependable right hand to senior leaders—prioritising tasks, solving problems and delivering high-quality legal administrative support.
