Senior Florida Family Law Litigation Paralegal - High-Level Case Management (Hiring Immediately)

$70k - $99k
Part-time

Costa & Associates

Family Law Paralegal (High-Level Case Management Role)

This Is Not a Basic Support Role — It’s a High-Level Case Management Role

EXPERIENCED Family Law Paralegal to work on site in Miami Lakes

Costa & Associates is a growing boutique law firm in Miami Lakes focused exclusively on family law and transactional real estate. We are seeking  an exceptional Florida Family Law Litigation Paralegal who has already  demonstrated the ability to independently manage the progression of Florida family law cases from initial filing through final judgment while working closely with the supervising attorney.

This position is  not  designed for someone looking to learn family law or develop basic litigation skills. 

We are looking for someone who has already earned the trust of the attorney they support by consistently taking ownership of their cases, anticipating the next step, exercising sound judgment, communicating professionally, and helping keep cases moving without constant direction.

If you take pride in being the person your attorney depends on, clients trust, and your team values, you may be exactly who we are looking for.

In return, you will have the opportunity to become an integral part of a growing boutique law firm where your experience, judgment, initiative, accountability, and contributions  are genuinely valued . We are looking for a long-term professional who wants more than a job. We are looking for someone who wants to help build a practice, make a meaningful difference for clients, and become an indispensable member of our team.

Why High-Performing Paralegals Choose Our Firm

  • Meaningful Responsibility – This is not a task-based support role. You will play a central role in the successful progression of family law cases, working closely with the supervising attorney and making a meaningful impact on every case you handle.
  • Professional Trust & Respect – We hire experienced professionals because we value their judgment. We believe the best paralegals are trusted, respected, and empowered to take ownership of their work while maintaining open communication and accountability.
  • A Voice That Matters – As a growing boutique law firm, your ideas, observations, and experience matter. We encourage initiative, continuous improvement, and thoughtful solutions that strengthen our systems, our team, and the service we provide clients.
  • Purpose-Driven Work – Family law is more than paperwork. Every case represents a family navigating one of the most difficult periods of their lives. We are committed to providing exceptional legal representation while treating clients with professionalism, compassion, and respect.
  • Long-Term Opportunity – We are building more than a law firm—we are building a team. We are looking for someone seeking a long-term professional home where excellent work is recognized, accountability is valued, and individual contributions genuinely make a difference.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive Base Salary: $70,000 – $99,000 yearly (based on experience, capability, and overall fit for the position)
  • Performance Bonuses: Based on effectiveness, organization, and overall contribution
  • Paid Time Off : After 120 days
  • 8 paid firm holidays
  • 8 paid vacation days annually, with partial availability during the first year & an additional day added yearly thereafter
  • Contribution toward health insurance after 120 days
Compensation:

$70,000 - $99,000 yearly

  • Take ownership of all court deadlines and internal deadlines, identifying issues before they become problems, and ensuring matters continue moving forward efficiently.

  • We believe in trusting experienced professionals, encouraging initiative, and maintaining open communication rather than micromanagement.
  • Organized, systems-driven practice committed to continuous improvement, efficiency, and delivering an exceptional client experience.
  • We value people who take ownership of their work, contribute positively to the team, and are committed to building a long-term professional home.
