Litigation Paralegal

Our paralegals work directly with attorneys on a variety of litigation coordination and trial preparation assignments. The litigation coordination work involves data compilation, deadline tracking, preparation of billing materials, and the preparation of weekly and quarterly status reports for use by attorneys in reporting to clients. The trial preparation work involves review and summation of discovery, collection and review of medical records and other materials, updating case management databases,  and assisting attorneys with preparing and filing pleadings. Experience with WORD, Access, and Excel programs helpful; these programs will have to be mastered in order to perform a number of the daily tasks in a timely manner. Each paralegal will, under the direction of their supervising attorney, have responsibility for and contact with outside counsel and clients.

A professional demeanor, and excellence in verbal and written communication, an organized and detail-oriented attention to tasks, and the ability to respond promptly to information requests and work within deadlines, are essential characteristics of all paralegals.
