Litigation Paralegal, Personal Injury in Tucker, Georgia at Talantage, LLC

Job Title: Litigation Paralegal, Personal Injury

We are seeking an experienced Personal Injury Litigation Paralegal with substantial experience in both litigation and pre-litigation case management. The ideal candidate brings strong legal research, writing, organizational, and critical-thinking skills, along with the ability to move cases forward with minimal supervision under attorney direction.

This position requires the ability to prepare substantive legal work that is ready for attorney review, requiring primarily review and polish rather than substantial revision. The paralegal will also oversee two pre-litigation case managers and a legal secretary to support effective case progression and team coordination. Only qualified and experienced candidates will be considered.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage personal injury cases through pre-litigation and litigation, under attorney supervision.
• Draft complaints, briefs, motions, and other legal documents for attorney review.
• Conduct legal research and prepare clear, well-supported summaries.
• Prepare discovery requests and responses; organize supporting documents and track outstanding discovery.
• Maintain litigation deadlines, court dates, filing requirements, and attorney calendars.
• Assist with deposition, hearing, mediation, and trial preparation, including exhibits and case materials.
• Obtain, organize, and summarize medical records, bills, insurance information, and other evidence.
• Prepare demand packages and support settlement negotiations under attorney direction.
• Communicate with clients, insurers, medical providers, opposing counsel, and court personnel regarding case status and outstanding information.
• Oversee two pre-litigation case managers and a legal secretary, coordinating assignments, monitoring progress, and reviewing work for completeness and accuracy.
• Identify case obstacles, follow up on outstanding items, and escalate issues requiring attorney attention.
• Maintain accurate, organized case files and protect confidential client information.

Required Qualifications

• Meaningful, hands-on experience in both personal injury litigation and pre-litigation case management.
• Demonstrated ability to draft substantive legal documents and conduct legal research with minimal supervision.
• Strong knowledge of discovery, litigation procedures, deadline tracking, and personal injury case development.
• Excellent written communication, analytical, and critical-thinking skills.
• Ability to produce accurate, well-organized work that is ready for attorney review.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple cases and competing priorities.
• Ability to oversee support staff, provide clear direction, and promote accountability.
• Proficiency with legal research tools, case management software, Microsoft Office, and electronic filing systems.

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior supervisory or team leadership experience in a personal injury law firm.
• Paralegal certificate or relevant degree.

Ideal Candidate
You are a proactive, detail-oriented paralegal who can take ownership of case tasks, anticipate next steps, and keep matters moving. You are equally comfortable handling substantive litigation assignments and guiding a pre-litigation team, while recognizing when attorney input or approval is required.
