Work Environment
Legal operations specialists work in comfortable business offices. The majority have a 9:00-to-5:00, Monday-Friday schedule, but some occasionally work in the evening and on weekends. This job can be stressful if lawyers (who often have Type-A personalities) don’t “buy in” to the role of legal operations in the proper functioning of the department or if issues arise with new technology. Many LOSs enjoy their careers because their work environment is intellectually engaging, there are a variety of job duties (i.e., no day is the same), and most lawyers value the fact that the legal operations staff allows them to perform the highly specialized duties that they trained for (rather than dealing with billing snafus, tracking down unsigned contracts, or addressing technology challenges).
