Family Law Paralegal

$60,000-$75,000 base + performance bonus Who we are Family law is deeplypersonal. The people who hire us are splitting a life and fighting for their kids. They do not need a firm that sounds like transactional robots. JR Law Group is an award-winning, female-founded family law firm that only does family law Utah-wide. Jaclyn Robertson built it so the whole team, attorneys and paralegals, can do high-level work and still enjoy it. Paralegals here are not a back office. You sit in with our amazing attorneys, keep cases moving, catch what is coming next, and make sure clients are never left guessing. You get systems that run and leadership that stays in it with you. We are growing. We want someone who wants to stay and build something, not park for a year and bounce. Our core values Innovation: We break the mold. Respect: Without exception. Excellence: Endless pursuit. Who this is for An experienced family law paralegal who already knows this is more than checking boxes. You see the deadline before anyone asks. You talk to clients without making them more anxious. You own your piece of the file . You understand that spectacular paralegal work changes how a case is staffed and how it ends.
