About the Role

Join a partner-led litigation team at a mid-sized law firm, supporting employment and complex civil litigation matters from case inception through resolution. This role is suited to an experienced paralegal who can manage competing deadlines and provide thorough, dependable support to attorneys.

What You'll Do

Support attorneys through all phases of litigation, including discovery, document review, trial preparation, and appellate support.

Draft and proofread pleadings, subpoenas, discovery requests and responses, and correspondence.

Manage document productions and e-discovery workflows using litigation support tools.

Prepare deposition summaries, trial binders, exhibit lists, and witness files.

Assist attorneys during hearings, occasional trials, and client meetings.

Conduct factual and legal research using tools such as Westlaw, LexisNexis, and PACER, and support brief writing and cite-checking.

Maintain organized case files and calendaring systems while tracking multiple deadlines.

What We're Looking For

At least five years of litigation paralegal experience, ideally in the five to twelve year range.

Experience with complex civil litigation in a law firm, corporate legal department, or federal court practice, beyond insurance defense alone.

Defense-side litigation experience; experience at plaintiffs' firms is not a fit for this role.

Strong command of litigation support and e-discovery tools, with experience managing document productions.

Bluebooking and cite-checking experience, or the ability to quickly learn current citation standards.

Employment law experience is a plus. A bachelor's degree or paralegal certificate is preferred.

Ability to prioritize effectively, manage concurrent deadlines, and maintain a steady, detail-oriented approach.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary range: $70,000 to $100,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available. The firm does not require staff to meet billable-hour targets.

Location

On-site in Atlanta, Georgia.
