A multi-service California law firm advising businesses and private clients throughout the South Bay
Litigation Legal Administrative Assistant
This team supports litigators handling business disputes, real estate conflicts, trust and probate contests, and employment matters that routinely land in superior court, federal district court, and private mediation. Clients—ranging from mid-market entrepreneurs to established family enterprises—rely on meticulous case management and seamless administrative support. You will prepare and format pleadings, discovery, motions, and correspondence; manage calendaring and court deadlines across multiple jurisdictions; coordinate e-filings; and organize trial binders and exhibits under genuine deadline pressure. The work rewards deep familiarity with civil procedure, fastidious attention to detail, and the professional judgment to keep several active dockets moving without misstep.

- 7+ years of litigation legal administrative experience in a law firm environment
- Command of state and federal court rules, calendaring, and electronic filing procedures
- Advanced proficiency with document formatting, table of authorities, and trial preparation logistics
- Demonstrated ability to manage competing deadlines while maintaining accuracy and composure
