Paralegal - Family Law

$50k - $70k
Full-time

Focus on the Strategy, Not the Search.

Most paralegals spend their time hunting for new business or managing administrative overflow. At the Law Office of Bryan Fagan, we’ve cleared your desk. We handle the lead generation and administrative heavy lifting so you can focus exclusively on high-level case management and strategic execution.

Our paralegal teams are the backbone of our advocacy and practice strategy. We strive to provide a true team-based environment that protects your work-life balance. In this role, you will leverage your expertise in family law to drive meaningful results for our clients, navigating them through their toughest chapters with professionalism and empathy.

  • Case Ownership: Manage the full lifecycle of family law and EPG (Estate Planning/Guardianship) matters from inception through resolution.
  • Strategic Drafting: Craft substantive pleadings, motions, and complex discovery responses with a high degree of technical accuracy.  
  • Discovery & Inventory: Lead the discovery and inventory process, including tracing separate property funds and identifying "red flags" in complex financial affidavits or business valuations.
  • Trial Readiness: Partner with attorneys to curate trial exhibits, organize trial notebooks, and manage ongoing RFOs (Requests for Order).  
  • Administrative Precision: Oversee court filings, maintain rigorous calendaring for hearings and deadlines, and ensure billable hours are captured accurately.

We value our paralegal team as the backbone of our firm and compensate accordingly. We offer a "Big Law" structure with a "Boutique" focus on people.

  • Competitive Earnings: A base salary commensurate with experience plus earn up to $35K more with our attractive billable hour bonus plan, paid out every paycheck!
  • Essentials: 401(k) with up to 5% company match, medical/dental/vision, and full benefits.
  • Real Balance: PTO, company holidays, and an earned hybrid option designed to protect your work-life balance and mental health.
  • Real Support: You focus on the strategy; our marketing and administrative engine handles the rest.

Why the Law Office of Bryan Fagan?

We’ve spent over a decade building a reputation for excellence in Texas. Here, your skills are respected, your support is guaranteed, and your mission is clear: providing elite legal representation without the burnout of business development.

Equal Opportunity Statement:

We recognize that diverse experiences, perspectives and backgrounds enable us to be an even stronger company and workplace. Not only will you be welcome here, your unique thoughts and opinions will be encouraged, celebrated and deeply valued. 

  • Experience: At least 2+ years of dedicated Texas Family Law experience as a paralegal.
  • Technical Mastery: Proficiency in E-Filing across various state court portals and staying current with local rules.
  • Software Expert: Fluent in Clio/MyCase, Google Suite, and modern document management systems.
  • Ethical Anchor: A professional who understands the line between legal information and legal advice and remains calm under the pressure of emotionally charged litigation.
  • Team Leader: A self-starter capable of providing mentorship and contributing to a collaborative team culture.
