Litigation Paralegal

Now Hiring: Paralegal at Goings Law Firm

Goings Law Firm is a leading team of highly successful trial attorneys and legal professionals who work with clients to achieve exceptional outcomes in unusually challenging cases.

We are a boutique law firm with a specific focus on catastrophic injury, wrongful death, and workers’ compensation cases, and we are known for our willingness — preference, even — for taking cases to trial. We believe firmly in the civil justice system of this great country, and we fight hard to get our clients their day in court before a jury of their peers.

We are located in the beautifully renovated Barton-Wallace Homes, built in 1890 and carefully restored by our firm in 2017 and 2023. These twin white, red-roofed buildings at the corner of Bull Street and Calhoun Street (directly across from the rapidly growing BullStreet District) are physical representations of our dedication to excellence and success. If you are interested in growing your career amidst a dynamic and supportive group of talented colleagues, we invite you to apply today.

We are currently opening one seat for a new paralegal, and we are looking for someone who resonates with our culture and who:

·      Has a strong professional drive and desire for personal growth and professional advancement;

·      Is a self-starter and a go-getter but who is also willing to take direction and seek mentorship from other members of the firm;

·      Has experience as a paralegal, preferably in a litigation-focused role (defense- or plaintiff-side) – preferred but not required;

·      Understands the nuances of exceptional customer service and is dedicated to treating our clients with the respect and level of care and attention they deserve from us;

·      Has a high level of verbal ability and an appreciation for language, with a strong capacity for quality writing and drafting; and

·      Pays a high level of attention to detail, and has particular talent for staying organized in the midst of a high level of activity.

Last but perhaps most important, we seek a new paralegal who shares our firm’s values. At Goings Law Firm, we are dedicated to the values of teamwork, client service, family, professional success, character, and personal responsibility, and we take great care in only bringing people into our firm who share these values.

What we offer to the right candidate:

·      An opportunity to work in a highly successful litigation practice.

·      A flat hierarchy with no bureaucracy and a high level of access to our firm’s leaders, which creates uncommon opportunities for personal growth and professional development.

·      A stable and comfortable work environment where it is easy to be successful. Little-to-no travel is required, and holidays and vacation opportunities are generous. A full suite of cutting-edge technology will be provided to you, including everything you need to be successful.

·      An opportunity to see your work directly impact the firm — as a boutique firm with less than twenty people, we offer our team members numerous opportunities to impact and advance the work of the firm with the ideas and input they bring to the table.

·      An opportunity to see your work directly impact our clients’ lives — our firm regularly gets thank-you letters sent to us from happy clients whose lives we’ve helped change. (See our 700 5-star reviews on Google for examples of how our clients are positively impacted by the work we do for them day in and day out.)

·      And finally, we offer highly competitive compensation plans and financial rewards for the right person, with plenty of room for upward mobility within the firm.
