Senior Family Law Paralegal

Description

We are growing! Do you look forward to going to work each day? Life's too short to start your day with dread. We want to come to work each day. At our firm, you will be a part of a team where firm culture is a top priority. We invest in both our firm as a whole and in each team member. You will work with a team that works collaboratively, strategically, and creatively, supporting each other as we collectively support clients and move their cases toward resolution using creative solutions.

We help good people end broken marriages by practicing family law differently. We guide clients and support them in their desire to end marriages in a manner consistent with their values using non-adversarial techniques. Clients deserve better than a process that ends in outright warfare. Divorce can be a transitional time of remarkable growth and transformation when focused on creating a new future rather than the past. Clients need to know that they have options when facing a divorce, and we help them find a better way.

Do you have at least 5-7 years' experience as a family law paralegal? Let us hear from you if you're a collaborator at heart! The ideal candidate for this position will use their experience in Texas and superb strategic skills to compassionately support clients during their family law journey.

This position is hybrid-eligible. You must live within the Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex in order to assist with preparation for case activities (such as mediations and hearings). We are searching for an experienced, seasoned Paralegal.

Please read this posting and subsequent emails carefully; we will screen out candidates who do not follow all instructions during the application process.
