Job Description

Pay: $80,000.00 - $120,000.00 per year

Why This Is a Great Opportunity

  • Tech-forward environment that moves fast and eliminates busywork

  • Work directly with clients to gather information and prepare discovery responses
  • Review and summarize employment agreements, contracts, and key case documents
  • Support attorneys with legal research and case strategy execution
  • Assist with deposition prep, mediation prep, settlement packages, and billing support
  • Keep cases moving proactively with clear communication and strong follow-through

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of overall legal experience (paralegal/litigation support)
  • 2+ years of California employment litigation experience (recent, hands-on)
  • Strong drafting skills (pleadings, discovery, motions support) — you can produce attorney-level work product
  • Experience across employment matters such as wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wage and hour, and class/PAGA exposure
  • Highly organized, responsive, and able to run independently with minimal training
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced remote environment using modern legal tech
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office; Clio experience strongly preferred
  • Spanish fluency is a plus

Why You'll Love Working Here

  • Remote-first team with high standards and zero micromanagement
