  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills; professional demeanor
  • Exceptional attention to detail, ability to manage multiple priorities, and meet tight deadlines

Note on Title:

While this role is internally referred to as a Legal Assistant, it aligns with the market-level expectations of a Paralegal in terms of skill and responsibility - minus billable hour requirements or trial travel. We encourage candidates with strong litigation support experience to apply, regardless of title.
