Job Description
Litigation Paralegal — Full-Time | In-Office | Costa Mesa, CA
This is not your average admin role. We need a litigation-savvy legal professional who can draft form complaints, prepare written discovery, and support attorneys in fast-paced, deadline-driven pre-lit matters. If you're the type who double-checks your own double-check, you'll feel right at home. You'll be joining a supportive, close-knit Demands Team that's passionate about closing cases with excellence.
What you'll do:
* Draft and file form complaints with high accuracy and attention to deadlines
* Prepare and respond to written discovery — interrogatories, RFPs, and RFAs
* Manage litigation calendars, statutes of limitation, and attorney follow-ups
* Coordinate depositions, medical exams, and interpreter/court reporter services
* Organize and prepare trial binders, motions, and other key filings
* Monitor settlement documentation and track insurance adjuster communications
* Bridge communication between the Demands Team and Litigation Team
* Maintain detailed case notes and file updates in our CRM system
What we're looking for:
* 5+ years of recent litigation paralegal experience (personal injury preferred)
* Strong command of California Civil Procedure; federal rules familiarity a plus
* Paralegal certificate required
* Proven track record drafting complaints and discovery without supervision
* Master-level attention to detail with the ability to manage a heavy caseload
* Experience with trial prep, calendaring, and deposition logistics
* Proficient in Microsoft Office and legal CRM systems
* Bilingual in Spanish or Korean — a plus
What we offer:
* Firm-paid medical, dental, vision & life insurance after 60 days
* 401(k) with 3% company match after 1 year
* 2 weeks PTO after 90 days
* ️ Access to our state-of-the-art on-site gym
* Career pathing and development opportunities
* A passionate, driven team that genuinely enjoys working together
