Remember: your objective should not be about you, but about them– what can you do for them, how can you add value to their organization.

Here are a few:

1. A clerical profession in a legal field to assist others and increase my experience.

2. Accomplish the assigned workload in a timely manner and meet established performance standards and objectives.

3. A position as a legal secretary that will fully utilize my skills

Of the two you have, I prefer “Responsible position in the legal industry involving multiple detail oriented responsibilities” — but neither really catches my eye. The — this one has too much responsibleness (i.e. responsible twice) in it — it seems like you are trying too hard.

Personally, I am a fan of putting something about your love of the legal industry together with your experience in clerical work together to the advantage of a firm.
