Job Description

About Us :

We’re a small plaintiff’s employment firm with a long local track record of standing up for workers. On any given day we’re juggling moving parts, pitching in together, and keeping our cases humming towards trial with communication and a sense of humor. You’ll join two paralegals and three attorneys who value crisp work, kind people, and making things right.

What You’ll Do :

You’ll be the hub that keeps cases on track and your teammates in sync. A typical week includes :

  • Building clean filings : draft / format pleadings, motions, discovery requests / responses under attorney guidance.
  • Running the case engine : manage client intake; organise both e-files and paper files; maintain calendars, task lists, and deadlines.
  • Being the point of contact : coordinate with clients, opposing counsel, court clerks, and vendors professionally and promptly.
  • Managing documents : organise production sets, exhibits, and databases.
  • Prepping for the big moments : assemble hearing / deposition / mediation materials and trial binders, coordinate logistics, catch mistakes that may have slipped through.
  • Time management : track deadlines, send reminders, and follow up with clients and attorneys.
  • Review & support : assist with initial document review, time entry, billing support, and file closing.

You’ll Be a Great Fit If You :

  • Like chasing devils out of details.
  • Are looking for variable and intellectually challenging work.
  • Have something like a color-coordinated closet or a statistical analysis of your fantasy football picks.
  • Want a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same.
  • Are comfortable with Microsoft Office and Google Suite products.
  • We’ll teach you the legal content; bring your administrative operations mindset. Recent grads and career-changers are encouraged to apply. Food service experience does translate; no opposing counsel is as tough as grandma at Sunday brunch.

    How to Apply :

    Please send your resume, three references, and a short cover letter explaining why this role fits you to llf.jobapplication@gmail.com. The email subject line should include your name and “Paralegal Application.”
