Phoenix PI Litigation Paralegal

About the role

We are looking for an experienced Litigation Paralegal to support a boutique plaintiff-side personal injury practice in Phoenix, Arizona. This position is suited to someone who thrives in a focused caseload environment where matters are fewer in number but significant in value and complexity. The role works closely with a team of attorneys on active litigation, trial preparation, and case progression, with the opportunity for limited remote flexibility after onboarding and demonstrated performance in the office.

Responsibilities

• Manage plaintiff personal injury litigation files from initial case development through resolution, keeping deadlines, filings, and case materials organized and current.
• Prepare and coordinate discovery activities, including drafting responses, assembling production materials, and tracking compliance with court and party deadlines.
• Support attorneys with federal and state court litigation tasks by preparing pleadings, motions, exhibits, and related case documents for filing and service.
• Assist with trial readiness by organizing evidence, preparing hearing and trial binders, coordinating witnesses, and maintaining detailed case timelines.
• Use case management software to maintain accurate records, monitor litigation milestones, and ensure documents are accessible and properly indexed.
• Communicate with clients, experts, providers, and opposing counsel to gather records, confirm case information, and facilitate ongoing file development.
• Review medical, factual, and procedural records to help attorneys assess damages, liability issues, and overall case strategy.
• Work primarily in the office to build strong collaboration with the legal team, with some remote work available after training and integration into the practice.

Requirements

• At least 5 years of paralegal experience supporting civil litigation matters, with a strong preference for personal injury plaintiff-side work.
• Demonstrated ability to handle litigation files involving substantial claims and detailed case development.
• Practical experience with discovery management, document organization, and trial preparation in active litigation matters.
• Familiarity with case management software and confidence maintaining accurate litigation records and calendars.
• Knowledge of court filing procedures and litigation workflow; exposure to federal court matters is helpful.
• Strong written communication, attention to detail, and organizational skills in a deadline-driven legal environment.
• Ability to work closely with attorneys in an office-based setting and build trust through reliable, high-quality support.
