Litigation Paralegal - Remote/Hourly

Litigation Paralegal

Wanta Thome is a plaintiff-side employment litigation firm built like a modern company. Most firms hand their paralegals legacy processes and call it support work. We have an in-house developer team that builds custom drafting and case tools, we run the firm on data-backed goals so priorities are never a mystery, and we build teams where paralegals do substantive litigation work, not administrative cleanup.

This is not a legal secretary position. As a Litigation Paralegal, you drive case momentum. 2+ years of litigation paralegal experience, required. Employment law experience is helpful but not required; we have resources for teaching the substantive law to paralegals who already know how litigation works. This is not an entry-level position.

Litigation calendars do not move, and you will manage several active matters at once.

You need steady empathy and the judgment to keep conversations productive without stepping into legal advice.

Draft complaints, routine motions, discovery requests and responses, and mediation statements that need light attorney revision, not a rewrite.

Build the strategic core of each file: fact chronologies, deposition summaries, document indexes, and witness profiles.

2+ years of paralegal experience in litigation, required. bachelor's degree preferred.
