Legal Secretary Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve built solid experience supporting busy legal teams and know how crucial tidy files and accurate timing are. At [Previous Company], I helped keep three lawyers on track by managing calendars, arranging travel, and processing urgent correspondence in a timely way. When a meeting ran long, I could pivot quickly, reissuing agendas and briefing notes to keep everyone aligned. I’m comfortable with legal terminology and document handling, and I can proofread with a critical eye. I’ve supported preparation of reports, notes, and briefs, and I maintain filing and records with attention to compliance. I’m tidy in my diary management and I’m comfortable directing calls or arranging meetings with multiple stakeholders. A memorable moment came when we needed to lodge a last‑minute filing for a court deadline. I coordinated with the fee earner, prepared the draft memorandum, proofread the final version, and ensured the courier picked up the documents on time. The process ran smoothly, and the team could focus on strategy rather than logistics. I’m keen to bring my practical approach to [Company Name] as a legal secretary. I’m available for a discussion at your convenience and can start when needed. Kind regards, [Your Name]
