Litigation Paralegal

Job Description

This is probably one of the most honest job ads you'll ever read.

We wrote it that way on purpose — so you don't waste your time, and neither do we.

We are a fast-growing consumer protection law firm. We fight for ordinary people — your neighbors, your family members — against greedy debt collectors, predatory dealers, and institutions that take advantage of vulnerable folks every day. We win for clients because we are tenacious, organized, and relentless.

We need a paralegal who is all of those things, too.

Who you are

If these statements describe you, keep reading:

You think in outlines, chronologies, and indexes.

You see an opportunity for organization where other people see a mess.

Your middle name is "No Drama."

You smile when you answer the phone — even when the person on the other end doesn't.

You have a long fuse, but you know how to be persistent and stand your ground professionally.

You are an amazing juggler of tasks and can change gears without losing your place.

You do not think scanning, filing, or following up are "beneath you."

You are self-directed. You figure things out. You do not need hand-holding.

Deadlines are not suggestions to you — they are promises.

What we offer

Competitive salary based on experience

Performance-based bonus opportunities

Fully remote — work from anywhere

A team that works hard, wins together, and actually likes each other

Meaningful work — you will help real people fight back against powerful institutions

This job is not for you if…

You are a chronic excuse-maker, a late responder, easily distracted, or someone who checks out at 5:01. We are fair, we are human, and we make room for real life — but we need someone who brings their best to work every day and takes ownership of their mistakes when they happen.
