About You

You’re a skilled litigation paralegal looking for a law firm that understands how to get the job done while respecting healthy boundaries. Do we have billable requirements – sure. But we also want you to have a life outside of work. You'll do the normal paralegal tasks: manage deadlines and filings, prepare discovery, help draft pleadings and demand letters, and help get cases ready for hearings and trial with attention to detail. You'll also attend them! We like to consider our paralegals the heart of our matters – you keep things flowing!

You don't need franchise law experience. We'll train you. What we're looking for is someone who is responsive, detail-oriented, curious about the law, and embraces technology. We are a very tech-forward law firm.

Why Join Us

• Direct, hands-on work with attorneys and clients
• Get paid to learn a new area of law (franchise law)
• Competitive salary of $80,000 – $95,000 per year + bonus potential
• Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits (employer-subsidized)
• Unlimited PTO (if meeting your billable goal)
• 10 paid Holidays + 1 Floating Holiday
