Robert Half

Paralegal

Statesville, NC 28677, US Full Time

⚖️ Complex Litigation Paralegal | High-Autonomy Role | Work-Life Flexibility


Are you a litigation paralegal ready to take full ownership of your workload while working alongside a highly driven attorney in a collaborative, small-team environment? Robert Half is partnering on a unique opportunity for a Complex Litigation Paralegal supporting a dynamic civil practice with a diverse caseload.


This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, case-heavy environment and enjoys balancing independence with structure.


🔍 What You’ll Be Doing As A Paralegal

  • Manage a high-volume caseload (90–110 matters), including complex, multi-year litigation as well as shorter-cycle cases
  • Support a broad mix of matters, including civil litigation, estate disputes, and family law
  • Draft, format, and finalize pleadings, motions, discovery, and court filings for attorney review
  • Maintain strict oversight of deadlines, calendars, and case progression across all matters
  • Partner directly with the attorney to prepare for hearings, trials, and ongoing case strategy discussions
  • Serve as a key liaison with clients, courts, and opposing counsel to keep matters moving efficiently
  • Conduct legal research using tools like LexisNexis and analyze case materials to support strategy
  • Utilize modern systems (cloud-based case management, MS Teams, Adobe) to manage workflow and documentation
  • Assist with time tracking, billing coordination, and invoicing support



Qualifications:

What We’re Looking For

  • 2+ years of civil litigation experience, ideally handling more complex, multi-year cases
  • Strong drafting experience across litigation documents (pleadings, discovery, etc.)
  • Ability to manage competing priorities and stay ahead of deadlines in a structured workflow environment
  • Comfortable working independently while maintaining accountability and communication cadence
  • Tech-savvy with legal systems, e-filing, and document management tools
  • Highly detail-oriented, organized, and proactive in managing caseloads

🌟 Why This Role Stands Out

  • Autonomy & Ownership: Take full control of your cases from start to finish
  • Flexible Culture: Supportive environment that understands real-life commitments
  • Consistent Structure: Regular check-ins to keep priorities aligned and workflow on track
  • Work Environment: Primarily in-office with flexibility (potential 3/2 hybrid for the right person)
  • Exposure: Hands-on experience across multiple litigation areas in a close-knit practice

💼 Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive compensation based on experience
  • Simple IRA retirement plan
  • 11 paid holidays + 10 additional PTO days to start
  • Flexible scheduling when life happens

If you’re looking for a role where you can make an immediate impact, work closely with decision-makers, and truly own your work, this could be a great next step.
