LITIGATION PARALEGAL
Atlanta, GA | Full-time | Hybrid (4 days in-office / 1 day WFH)
-------------------------------------------------------------
COMPENSATION
Base: $65K--$75K
-------------------------------------------------------------
WHY THIS ROLE
The billing target here is 800 hours annually — well below the 1,200+ hours typical at larger Atlanta firms — while the work is substantive: employment law and voting rights matters with BigLaw-caliber partners at a boutique that's earned national recognition in Best Law Firms, Chambers USA, Best Lawyers, and Georgia Trend's Legal Elite. You'll manage the full litigation lifecycle from inception through resolution and be mentored day-to-day by a senior paralegal with 20 years of experience. Add 20 days PTO from day one and free lunch twice a week, and this is a meaningfully better quality-of-life situation than comparable roles at larger firms.
-------------------------------------------------------------
ABOUT THE ROLE
You'll support two litigation partners on employment law and voting rights matters, handling filings, discovery, and case management from inception through resolution. The work spans drafting pleadings and discovery documents, preparing trial binders, managing e-discovery workflows, and conducting legal research. You'll collaborate closely with a senior paralegal lead (20 years of experience) who will guide onboarding and day-to-day workflow.
