Cavanagh LLP is seeking TWO LITIGATION LEGAL ASSISTANTS for Maternity Leaves


Cavanagh LLP is seeking TWO litigation legal assistants, each for a one-year maternity leave. One position is to work with a partner and one position is to work with two associates.


We are a small, busy Ottawa-based civil litigation boutique in Westboro, conveniently located within walking distance of many restaurants, great shops and the transitway. We practise in the areas of insurance defence, professional liability, personal injury, and employment law. We support a hybrid or remote working environment.

What are we looking for in a legal assistant? Read on and find out:


  • excellent computer skills and the capacity to work without paper (we have been paperless for nearly twenty years, so we use multiple software programs to work and manage the practice);
  • a minimum of five years’ experience as an assistant in civil litigation;
  • strong written and communication skills (you are the type to pick up the phone and call someone without being told to do so); and
  • initiative and the ability to work independently but recognize when your colleagues need help and just pitch in.

These are full-time twelve-month positions with a competitive salary and benefits package. We will consider applicants looking for part-time work as well. Please send your resume to our firm’s Director of Human Resources & Administration, Rachel Robert, by May 10, 2024 – rrobert@cavanagh.ca. We thank everyone for their interest, but only short-listed candidates will be contacted.
