About the Opportunity

Adams & Martin Group has partnered with a nationally respected, full-service law firm-recognized for its collaborative culture and sophisticated litigation practice-that is expanding its Los Angeles office. The firm is seeking a sharp, proactive Litigation Legal Administrative Assistant to support a high-volume Commercial Litigation team.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, takes pride in accuracy, and enjoys being the organizational backbone for busy attorneys.

Responsibilities

• Draft, edit, and format correspondence and litigation documents
• File and e-file pleadings in state and federal courts (including ECF/PACER)
• Manage complex calendaring and litigation deadlines
• Schedule depositions, meetings, and court-related events
• Coordinate attorney travel and prepare detailed expense reports
• Maintain organized files and handle accurate time entry
• Review and edit monthly prebills
• Assist with additional administrative needs as required by the litigation team

Qualifications

• 3+ years of litigation support experience, preferably in commercial litigation
• Strong calendaring skills with deep knowledge of litigation timelines
• Hands-on filing/e-filing experience in both state and federal courts
• Proficiency with MS Office and experience with document management and timekeeping systems
• Excellent writing, grammar, proofreading, and organizational skills
• Ability to manage multiple deadlines with precision and professionalism
• A dependable team player who can also work independently and anticipate needs
• Highly detail-oriented, flexible, and able to thrive under pressure

Why This Role Stands Out

• Join a growing, well-established litigation team in a major market
• Work in a supportive, people-first culture where administrative talent is truly valued
• Competitive compensation and strong benefits
• Predictable schedule: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM or 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM

Top Three Must-Haves

• Exceptional calendaring + filing/e-filing skills
• 3-5 years of commercial litigation experience
• Ability to manage a fast-paced, high-volume desk with confidence
