Business Litigation Paralegal

This is a rare opportunity to join a newly established law firm founded by a highly respected former Supreme Court Justice. Built on a strong reputation and trusted relationships, the firm is positioned for immediate credibility and long-term success. With a strategic marketing partnership already in place and a strong emphasis on thoughtful branding, the firm is designed to compete at a sophisticated level from day one. While the environment will initially feel like a startup, the vision, leadership, and investment behind it set it apart. The firm focuses primarily on business litigation, representing small to mid-sized companies in high-value disputes—often involving claims in the millions. This is not an insurance defense or personal injury practice.
