Background in legal or paralegal studies and proficiency with e-filing legal documents in relevant courts.

Competitive compensation in the mid-$70Ks to low-$80Ks, plus a full benefits package including medical, vision, dental, PTO, 401k, life, and disability coverage.

Why is This a Great Opportunity

Rapidly expanding national law practice with strong growth momentum.

Competitive hourly compensation in the $35.50$40.00 range for this position.

Hybrid work model with the ability to work from home part of the week in Houston.

Comprehensive benefits, including medical, vision, dental, PTO, 401k, life insurance, and disability coverage.

Close collaboration with attorneys in a busy Litigation and Dispute Resolution group, offering substantive exposure to litigation work.

Predictable, reasonable schedule

Strong, long-standing market reputation and a culture that emphasizes client service, high-quality work product, and precise execution.
