The Role

We're seeking a highly organized, detail -oriented Paralegal in the essential role of teaming up with our attorneys to managing legal documents, coordinating court filings, investigating facts and records, and ensuring deadlines never slip. Your work directly impacts case outcomes and client relationships.

About Us

Stotler Hayes Group, LLC is a nationally recognized healthcare law firm serving long-term care providers across the country. Our team of approximately 50 attorneys, paralegals, and operations professionals is dedicated to helping clients navigate complex legal matters involving Medicaid eligibility and reimbursement, administrative appeals, probate, estate administration, civil litigation, collections, and guardianships.

Our attorneys work remotely from home offices and coworking spaces throughout the United States while our Legal Support and Operations teams collaborate from our Pawleys Island, SC office to provide seamless support. We pride ourselves on being mission-driven, collaborative, people-centered, and committed to delivering exceptional service to both our clients and one another.

• Investigate facts and public records to support case strategy
• File documents with courts and administrative bodies, including electronic filing systems
• Maintain proactive follow-up on appeals, pleadings, verifications, and agency requests
• Manage attorney and shared office calendars; provide deadline reminders and tracking
• Communicate regularly with courts, agencies, clients, and internal teams
• Create and maintain organized virtual document files with proper indexing and filing protocols

Technology Aptitude

Success in this role requires someone who is comfortable using technology in a fast-paced, remote-support environment.
