Litigation Paralegal

What you’ll do:

In this role, you will manage the full lifecycle of litigation files — from complaint to verdict — ensuring all tasks are completed promptly, deadlines are met, and case materials are trial-ready. Your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

• Oversee the firm’s roster of active cases simultaneously, maintaining detailed and organized case files (digital and physical).
• Monitor case progress, track deadlines, and provide regular updates to attorneys and clients.
• Ensure all discovery responses, pleadings, and filings are accurate, complete, and timely.
• Understand the pre-litigation process to ensure complete claim-phase documentation, including sufficient photos, medical records, and lost wage information.
• Verify that case files are trial-ready from the outset of litigation, with no gaps from the claim stage.
• Draft, review, and track discovery requests and responses for all attorneys and defendants in multi-party litigation.
• Follow up on outstanding discovery with opposing counsel, UM/UIM (uninsured and underinsured motorist) carriers, and their attorneys.
• Coordinate statutory service to counsel and handle e-filings with precision and timeliness.
• Prepare deposition and mediation materials, including organizing exhibits, witness lists, and attorney slide presentations.
• Assist in creating comprehensive mediation presentations (often resembling trial openings) that set the tone for settlement negotiations.
• Prepare trial binders, jury instructions, and exhibit lists.
• Coordinate with expert witnesses, clients, and providers to ensure readiness.
• Maintain proactive, personable, and consistent contact with clients to secure timely responses, complete discovery requests, and provide case updates.
• Guide clients through the litigation process, ensuring clarity and confidence at each stage.
• Update and maintain all case statuses in FileVine.
• Ensure both digital and physical files are accurate and current to allow for seamless access by attorneys and other team members.

What we’re looking for:

• Paralegal certification required (CP, CLA, or equivalent).
• Additional coursework or continuing legal education in personal injury litigation preferred.
• Minimum 3+ years of litigation paralegal experience, preferably in plaintiff-side personal injury with a focus on auto, trucking, motorcycle, or commercial vehicle accidents.
• Demonstrated experience in multi-party litigation, UM/UIM claims, and discovery management.
• Prior experience handling a high-volume caseload (50+ cases) in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong understanding of litigation procedures from complaint through verdict, including statutory service, e-filing, discovery, mediation, and trial preparation.
• Exceptional organizational skills, able to prioritize and meet tight deadlines across multiple active cases.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with clients, attorneys, opposing counsel, and court personnel.
• Proficiency in FileVine or similar case management system.
• Professional, polished demeanor with the ability to foster client trust and confidence.
• Personable and approachable — able to balance professionalism with a warm, client-focused personality.
• Proactive problem solver who takes ownership of tasks and sees them through to completion.
• We’re seeking an individual who thrives in a collaborative, face-to-face environment at our Lawrenceville, GA headquarters.
• May (on rare occasions) assign work to be completed out of our Snellville, GA location.
