I need your help. I've been a paralegal at a family law office for a little over two months now. Today the attorney I work for asked me to hire a part-time file clerk but gave me no real clue of what she wants. I have a vague idea of what the office needs but I was hoping to get some input from those of you who have been at this a little longer than me.

Is there anything that you would add/take out? What makes for a good file clerk?
TIA!
