Litigation Paralegal- Catastrophic Injury

Job Description

A well-established boutique litigation firm in the Sandy Springs area is seeking an experienced Litigation Paralegal to join its team. This is a fully onsite position supporting attorneys handling sophisticated catastrophic injury and wrongful death matters .

This is an excellent opportunity for a paralegal who enjoys substantive litigation work and wants to focus on a smaller caseload of significant, high-value cases rather than managing a high-volume docket. The role will include some legal administrative responsibilities, but the primary focus is hands-on paralegal and litigation support.

• Manage case files, deadlines, discovery, and litigation calendars
• Draft and prepare pleadings, discovery, correspondence, subpoenas, and other litigation documents
• Coordinate and summarize medical records, records requests, and other case-related documentation
• Assist with deposition, mediation, hearing, and trial preparation
• Communicate with clients, experts, opposing counsel, courts, and other parties as needed
• Organize and maintain exhibits, evidence, and case materials
• Perform legal research and investigative support as needed
• Provide general legal administrative support to attorneys, including occasional scheduling, correspondence, and document management

What We're Looking For

• Prior litigation paralegal experience required; experience with personal injury, wrongful death, catastrophic injury, or complex civil litigation strongly preferred
• Strong understanding of the litigation process, discovery, court filings, and case management
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Highly organized with the ability to manage deadlines and details across complex matters
• Comfortable working closely with attorneys in a smaller, team-oriented firm environment
• Professional, dependable, and able to take ownership of assigned matters
