"Office Coordinator" -- is it a good job title?
Asked by robertinva
Is "Office Coordinator" a good job title for a person who works in a small law office (four people) handling: banking, billing, problem solving, database maintenance, general administrative, office supplies? What is a better title? Is Legal Adminisrator better or worse?
A:
Best Answer:
Sounds like an office manager to me. I think Office Manager sounds like it has more authority.
A:
I wouldn't really say legal adminstrator because you don't handle contracts and the legal aspects... I'd say more like Office Manager.

If you are not trained as a paralegal, I would avoid that LA title.
OC is not such a bad description. Office manager is okay as well.

A:
Definitely not Legal Administrator. You can open yourself to a lot of liability with a title like that and having nothing to do with LEGAL issues.
Office manager is what you really are. If you want a weaker "coordinator" title, that's fine.

A:
I'd actually go for Office Manager. Only because when I see billing I don't think of a Coordinator handling that.
Wouldn't go with Legal Administrator, in my head that denotes they know Legal stuff.

A:
Try using "Office Administrator, Office Administration."
I would not use Legal Administrator because you aren't administering anything legal.
