Full job description

Paralegal (Litigation, Corporate & Legal Research) – Remote | U.S. Hours

Position Type: Full-Time, Remote
Working Hours: U.S. Client Business Hours (flexibility for filings & deadlines)

About the Role

We’re hiring a Paralegal to provide hands-on legal support across litigation, corporate, and compliance matters.

This is not an admin role — this is a substantive legal support position.
You will be responsible for drafting documents, conducting legal research, and ensuring cases move forward accurately and on time.

If you’re detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and comfortable working across multiple legal areas — this role is built for you.

What You’ll OwnLegal Drafting (Core Responsibility)
  • Draft and prepare:
    • Contracts
    • Pleadings
    • Motions
    • Discovery requests/responses
    • Corporate governance documents
  • Ensure all work is accurate and aligned with attorney guidance

Legal Research & Analysis
  • Conduct research using:
    • Westlaw
    • LexisNexis
  • Analyze:
    • Case law
    • Statutes
    • Regulations
  • Deliver concise, actionable research memos

Case Preparation & Litigation Support
  • Prepare:
    • Deposition summaries
    • Exhibits
    • Trial binders
  • Track:
    • Litigation calendars
    • Filing deadlines
    • Discovery timelines
  • Ensure nothing slips through the cracks

Contract & Compliance Support
  • Review commercial agreements and summarize key terms
  • Flag legal risks for attorney review
  • Support:
    • Regulatory filings
    • Licensing
    • Compliance documentation (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA, SOX)

Document & Case Management
  • Maintain organized legal files using:
    • Clio
    • Relativity
    • iManage
  • Ensure all records are:
    • Accurate
    • Secure
    • Audit-ready

E-Discovery & Document Review
  • Support document review and production
  • Organize and manage discovery materials
  • Ensure compliance with discovery obligations

Client & Attorney Support
  • Communicate with clients to collect documents and information
  • Provide case updates when required
  • Support attorneys with research, drafting, and case execution

What Makes You a Strong Fit
  • You are a strong legal writer with attention to detail
  • You manage multiple cases without missing deadlines
  • You are proactive and resourceful
  • You can work independently with minimal supervision
  • You are comfortable across litigation, corporate, and compliance work

Required Experience & Skills
  • Bachelor’s degree or Paralegal Certificate
  • 3+ years professional paralegal experience
  • Strong experience with:
    • Westlaw / LexisNexis
  • Hands-on drafting experience (litigation + corporate documents)
  • Experience with:
    • Clio / Relativity / iManage
  • Strong understanding of litigation processes and deadlines

Nice to Have
  • Trial preparation experience
  • Corporate law exposure:
    • Entity formation
    • Board resolutions
    • Governance documentation
  • Experience with compliance frameworks:
    • GDPR
    • HIPAA
    • SOX
  • Advanced e-discovery/document review experience

What a Typical Day Looks Like
  • Draft legal documents and filings
  • Conduct legal research and prepare memos
  • Track deadlines and manage case timelines
  • Prepare materials for hearings or trial
  • Review contracts and flag risks
  • Organize and maintain case files
  • Communicate with clients and attorneys

In short:
You are the execution backbone that allows attorneys to move faster and more effectively.

Key Metrics (KPIs)
  • Zero missed deadlines (litigation/compliance)
  • Drafts requiring minimal revisions
  • Clean, organized, audit-ready case files
  • Research delivered on time and actionable
  • High reliability and attorney satisfaction

Why This Role Stands Out
  • High ownership of substantive legal work
  • Exposure to multiple legal areas (litigation + corporate + compliance)
  • Work directly with attorneys and case strategy
  • Clear expectations and performance metrics
  • Opportunity to grow into senior legal roles

Interview Process
  • Initial Phone Screen
  • Video Interview with Pavago Recruiter
  • Practical Task (drafting or legal research scenario)
  • Client Interview
  • Offer & Background Verification

Apply Now

If you:

  • Have strong legal drafting and research skills
  • Thrive in deadline-driven environments
  • Want to work on real legal matters (not admin work)

This role is a strong fit.
