Job Description:

Addison Group is seeking an experienced Transactional Legal Assistant on behalf of our client, a well-established legal organization in Dallas, TX. This individual will provide high-level administrative and legal support to attorneys handling corporate transactions, mergers and acquisitions, real estate, finance, and tax-related matters.

 

The ideal candidate has a background in transactional legal support, demonstrates exceptional attention to detail, and can independently manage competing priorities in a deadline-driven environment. This role requires someone who takes initiative, anticipates attorney needs, and can effectively coordinate complex transactions from inception through closing.

 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Prepare, revise, proofread, and format transactional and corporate legal documentation, ensuring accuracy and consistency throughout the document lifecycle.
  • Support mergers and acquisitions, corporate transactions, real estate matters, and financial closings by coordinating documentation, signature collections, and closing requirements.
  • Coordinate corporate filings, including submissions to the Texas Secretary of State, UCC filings, business entity formations, dissolutions, and ongoing entity compliance.
  • Maintain comprehensive electronic client and matter files, transaction records, closing binders, and document management systems.
  • Monitor transaction progress, maintain closing checklists, and track important filing requirements, deadlines, and deliverables across multiple active matters.
  • Coordinate attorney calendars, schedule meetings, and organize appointments and other business commitments.
  • Facilitate new client and matter intake, conduct conflict checks, prepare engagement documentation, and assist with opening new matters.
  • Serve as a point of coordination between attorneys, internal departments, clients, and external vendors to ensure timely completion of assignments.
  • Prepare and submit attorney expense reports, reimbursement requests, and payment documentation.
  • Maintain accurate records of attorney billable and nonbillable time and provide support with client billing activities.
  • Provide proactive administrative and operational support to attorneys while managing multiple assignments with minimal supervision.

Qualifications:

  • Three to five years of experience supporting attorneys in corporate law, mergers and acquisitions, commercial finance, or transactional legal practices preferred.
  • Practical understanding of corporate documentation, business entity management, Texas Secretary of State submissions, and UCC filing procedures.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office, iManage, Adobe Acrobat, and DocuSign.
  • Familiarity with document comparison and redlining applications, such as Litera Compare, as well as advanced PDF editing tools.
  • Strong document preparation, proofreading, spelling, and editing capabilities.
  • Previous experience working within an electronic document or legal matter management system.
  • Exceptional organizational skills and the ability to balance multiple assignments, transactions, and time-sensitive deadlines.
  • Demonstrated initiative, sound judgment, and the ability to work independently while supporting senior-level attorneys.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a professional approach to interacting with attorneys, colleagues, clients, and vendors.
  • Ability to work a consistent Monday–Friday schedule from 9:00 AM–6:00 PM, with occasional overtime as business needs require.
  • Must be comfortable working in a fast-paced legal environment where accuracy, discretion, and follow-through are essential.
