  • Assist with legal research and case preparation as needed


What We're Looking For

  • 3+ years of litigation paralegal experience, preferably within insurance defense or civil litigation
  • Strong understanding of the litigation process from filing through trial
  • Experience managing deadlines and handling multiple active cases simultaneously
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills
