What are the responsibilities and job description for the Litigation Paralegal position at Avata Partners?
Are you an exceptionally organized, proactive, and detail-driven litigation paralegal looking for your next career move? A respected national law firm—known for its collaborative culture and high-impact work—is seeking a talented Litigation Assistant to join its Larkspur, CA team. This role is hybrid (3 days onsite / 2 days remote) and offers the chance to work with an experienced group of attorneys on meaningful, complex matters.
About the Opportunity
This position supports a fast-paced litigation team handling significant caseloads across California and occasionally other jurisdictions. Experience with insurance subrogation or insurance defense is a plus (not required), but strong fundamentals of litigation and an ability to anticipate what comes next are key.
Day to Day:
You’ll be a core member of the litigation team, assisting with:
- Preparing and filing complaints and coordinating service
- Drafting and filing motions, deposition notices, and other pleadings
- Preparing inspection/claim notices and drafting case reports
- Managing and updating electronic calendaring systems
- Filing in state and federal courts
- Organizing and maintaining case files (electronic paper)
- Summarizing key documents, preparing damage summaries, and assembling demand packages
- Providing consistent, reliable support to attorneys handling large caseloads
Why This Role Stands Out:
- Hybrid flexibility (Larkspur office)
- Competitive salary: $85K–$90K
- Strong benefits including medical, dental, vision, life insurance & 401(k)
- Supportive, team-oriented culture
- Growth potential within a reputable national firm
Who Will Thrive Here
Someone who is:
✔ Highly organized & dependable
✔ Confident navigating court filings across multiple counties
✔ Comfortable juggling deadlines in a dynamic litigation environment
✔ A self-starter who anticipates needs and takes initiative
