    A well-established corporate litigation firm in downtown Houston is seeking an experienced Litigation Secretary / Paralegal hybrid to join their team. This is a direct-hire, in-office role (M–F, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM, paid parking) created due to a long-planned retirement and continued growth.

    This firm has been highly selective in its search and is seeking a career litigation professional with longevity, strong technical skills, and the ability to contribute immediately with minimal training.

    About the Role

    • Support 3–4 attorneys within a 12-attorney litigation group
    • Prepare, format, and finalize pleadings, motions, and discovery
    • E-file at both state and federal levels
    • Maintain litigation calendars and manage deadlines
    • Bill both personal time and attorney time accurately
    • Contribute billable hours (hybrid role; paralegals do not have a strict billable metric but may receive discretionary bonuses)

    What They're Looking For

    • 5+ years of general civil/corporate litigation experience (3 years minimum tenure per role)
    • Proven longevity — no job hoppers
    • Experience billing time and supporting multiple attorneys
    • Strong state and federal e-filing background
    • Corporate/complex litigation experience strongly preferred
    • Able to step in with little to no training
    • Personal injury experience will not translate

    Compensation & Benefits

    • $75,000–$100,000 DOE (heavily dependent on paralegal-level skill set)
    • Hourly position
    • Medical insurance fully paid by the firm
    • Dental & Vision coverage

    Firm Culture

    • Highly collaborative, team-oriented ("hive mind" environment)
    • Work-focused and professional
    • Open-door policy among attorneys
    • Attorney assignments are expected to remain stable but may shift as needed

  • Work in company
