Job description

Join a Team That Fights to Win
LA Century Law is a powerhouse litigation firm on the rise — and we're looking for a sharp, driven, and detail-obsessed Litigation Assistant to grow with us. This isn't a role for someone who wants to coast. We want someone who is hungry, takes ownership, and thrives in a fast-paced litigation environment where the work actually matters.
If you know your way around a courtroom deadline, live by your calendar, and take pride in keeping a case file airtight — we want to hear from you.
What You'll Do
You'll work directly alongside our litigation team, playing a critical role in managing cases from intake through resolution. Your day-to-day will include:
  • Propounding and responding to discovery — drafting, serving, and tracking written discovery with precision
  • Managing litigation deadlines — deep knowledge of the rules of civil procedure, with zero tolerance for missed dates
  • Filing documents — e-filing and physical filing with courts, ensuring every submission is accurate and timely
  • Calendaring and organization — owning case calendars, deadline trackers, and docketing systems so nothing falls through the cracks
  • Collaborating closely with the litigation team — working side-by-side with attorneys and paralegals to push cases forward
  • Managing case data in platforms like Filevine, CasePeer, or Litify — keeping every matter clean and current
  • Noticing Deposition
What We're Looking For
  • Prior experience as a litigation assistant, legal assistant, or paralegal in a civil litigation environment
  • Solid working knowledge of California Rules of Civil Procedure (federal experience a plus)
  • Hands-on experience propounding and tracking written discovery
  • Proficiency with at least one legal case management platform: Filevine, CasePeer, or Litify
  • Exceptional organizational skills — you're the person who always knows what's due next
  • A proactive, team-first mindset and the drive to do the work right, every time
  • Spanish literacy a plus
Why LA Century Law?
We invest in the people who invest in us. Our team members enjoy:
  • Performance-based bonuses — your hard work is recognized and rewarded
  • Comprehensive health insurance — medical, dental, and vision
  • 401(k) with company contribution — we help you build your future
  • Real room to grow — we're expanding and we promote from within
  • Meaningful work — you'll be part of a team fighting for real people with real stakes
