Opening the Door to Your Legal Support Career
The Personnel Placement Service (PPS) is a service of the Dayton Bar Association designed to match qualified, screened and tested applicants with member lawyers or firms that have full-time, part-time, temporary and/or permanent legal support staff needs. Please note, this service does not place lawyers.

Schedules that Fit
Your Needs
The PPS offers full-time, part-time, permanent and temporary positions and will work with you to place you in a position that best suits your needs.

A Variety of Professional Positions
The PPS can help you begin or advance your career in legal support. We place qualified applicants in a wide variety of law-related positions including:

• Legal secretaries
• Legal assistants
• Paralegals
• Word processors
• Office assistants
• File clerks
• Runners
• Legal administrators / office managers
• Bookkeepers

Competitive Wages
Our temporary employees are paid a minimum of $14.00 per hour by the employer. The wages for permanent employees are set by the employing lawyer or firm.

Temporary employees are not employed by the DBA nor are they paid by the DBA. PPS acts as a referral service, matching qualified individuals to member offices. Each member office is expected to pay the temporary employee directly, consider the temp as an employee and adhere to all appropriate laws and regulations as with any other employee.
