The Opportunity
Our Halifax office is growing, and we are looking for a legal assistant or paralegal to join our wills and estates team. You will work closely with Robbie Mason, helping clients put their estate plans in place and supporting families through the practical steps that follow a loss.
Your work will focus on estate planning and probate. You will help prepare wills and probate applications, coordinate meetings and deadlines, and keep in touch with clients as their matters progress. There is also an opportunity to assist with estate litigation if that interests you.
We are looking for someone who takes pride in careful work, communicates well, and follows through. Ours is a small team. We value colleagues who notice when something needs attention, speak up when they have a question, and lend a hand when someone else needs one.
Experience in a law office, particularly in wills and estates, is an asset. We also welcome applications from people with strong administrative skills developed in other professional settings. If you are interested in the work and willing to learn, we would like to hear from you. We offer health and dental benefits, competitive compensation, and opportunities for professional development.
Apply by December 1, 2026. Please send your résumé and a brief note about your experience and interest in the role to Lacie Greene, our office manager, at lgreene@carverlaw.ca. If you would like further details before applying, Lacie would be glad to speak with you.
