Job Description

Job Description

A respected CBD civil defense law firm is seeking an experienced Litigation Paralegal / Legal Assistant to support a fast-paced practice.

  • Manage Louisiana state and federal e-filing (Odyssey, PACER)
  • Maintain litigation calendars and track court deadlines
  • Organize case files, trial binders, and exhibits
  • Assist attorneys with trial preparation, hearings, and depositions
  • Coordinate scheduling and witness preparation

Required Experience & Skills

  • 3+ years of litigation paralegal or legal assistant experience
  • Civil litigation or civil defense background strongly preferred
  • Working knowledge of Louisiana Civil procedure and local court rules
  • Strong proofreading, legal formatting, and document management skills
  • Ability to manage multiple cases in a high-volume litigation setting
  • Experience with admiralty / maritime is a plus

Why This Role

  • HIGHLY competitive salary based upon your years of experience plus a benefits package to be envied that includes a generous parking allowance
  • Stable, collaborative defense firm environment with preeminent attorney
  • Well-established national law firm with an excellent reputation

Qualified litigation paralegals and legal assistants are encouraged to apply. All inquiries will be handled with the strictest of confidentially.
