Senior Litigation Paralegal

Cerami Search Group, Houston, TX, United States


Cerami Search Group is partnering with a highly respected Houston law firm to find a true trial paralegal—someone who doesn’t just support cases, but plays a critical role in winning them.
If you thrive in the intensity of trial, know how to keep moving parts aligned under pressure, and take pride in being indispensable in the courtroom, this is the kind of opportunity that doesn’t come around often.
You’ll work side-by-side with experienced trial attorneys on sophisticated commercial litigation matters, with meaningful involvement from day one through verdict.
What You’ll Own

Managing cases from initial filing through trial
Taking the lead on trial prep—exhibits, witness materials, binders, and courtroom coordination
Driving e-discovery efforts, including document review, productions, and vendor management
Supporting attorneys in real time during trials, hearings, depositions, and mediations
Preparing pleadings, motions, subpoenas, and discovery
Coordinating experts, demonstratives, and trial tech
Keeping everything—and everyone—on track in a deadline-driven environment
What Sets You Apart

5+ years of hands-on commercial litigation trial experience (law firm required)
You’ve been in the courtroom and know what it takes to support a trial team under pressure
Strong e-discovery experience and comfort working with litigation databases
Highly organized, proactive, and detail-focused
Calm, confident, and unshakable in high-stakes situations
You anticipate needs before they’re spoken and take full ownership of your role
Why This Role is Different

You won’t be on the sidelines—you’ll be in the middle of real trial work
Complex, high-level litigation that will sharpen your skill set
Attorneys who genuinely value and rely on their paralegals
Competitive compensation and long-term stability
Cerami Search Group is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All applicants are evaluated based on qualifications without regard to any protected status under applicable law.
