Senior Litigation Paralegal

Pay: $85,000.00 - $110,000.00 per year

WHY THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY

• Take ownership of complex, high-stakes litigation at a well-established, full-service firm with nearly a century of legal excellence behind it
• Work on substantive personal injury, wrongful death, and complex litigation matters for high-net-worth individuals, businesses, and institutional clients — not routine, low-complexity files
• Direct client interaction and real case responsibility — this is a senior role where you'll be trusted to move matters forward, not just support from the sidelines
• Collaborative, team-oriented firm culture with genuine investment in its people and a track record of long-tenured staff
• Competitive compensation plus eligibility for discretionary year-end bonuses and merit-based increases
• Comprehensive benefits package: medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance, 401(k), generous paid time off, and access to additional voluntary programs
• A firm that values work-life balance and community engagement — without sacrificing the quality of work or the caliber of clients
