Litigation Paralegal

Litigation Paralegal

The O’Neill Firm PLLC — Houston, Texas
Pay: $105,000 per year
Full-time · In person

We’re a small civil litigation firm looking for an experienced paralegal. You’ll work directly with the attorney on active cases and help with monthly billing and office administration.

Our work includes business disputes, real estate, healthcare, property tax matters, and collections. We need someone who knows Texas civil litigation and can handle routine paralegal work independently.

The work includes keeping the calendar and case list current, tracking deadlines, preparing and e-filing documents, coordinating service, organizing discovery, and helping prepare for depositions, mediations, and trial. You’ll also follow up with clients and others for documents and information, organize case files and exhibits, and keep track of what each matter needs next.

The position also includes preparing monthly bills, following up on unpaid invoices, opening new matters, and handling routine office administration.

We’re looking for someone with substantial civil litigation experience, preferably five years or more. You should be comfortable with Texas state-court filings, service, discovery deadlines, and trial preparation. Federal court experience is helpful. We can teach you our procedures, but you need to come in with the litigation experience.

We’re paperless and use Monday.com, Google Workspace, Dropbox, and other tools for documents, billing, and case management. You don’t need to have used every program we use, but you should be comfortable learning software and working with electronic files, PDFs, and spreadsheets.

We need someone who follows through, writes clearly, pays attention to details, and asks questions when something is unclear. When a deadline is approaching or a matter is waiting on something, we need you to keep track of it and help move it forward.

To apply, send your resume and a short note to [email protected]. Tell us what kinds of litigation you’ve worked on and which parts of the paralegal work you’ve handled independently. Please also mention any billing or office administration experience.
