Why This Role Stands Out in Denver's Legal Market

Denver's legal landscape is booming, especially in medical malpractice and personal injury law. Our client firm leads the field, handling precedent-setting cases that demand precision, speed, and deep legal knowledge. As a Litigation Paralegal, you'll play a pivotal role in taking cases from initial client intake to victorious trials, leveraging your proficiency in federal and state procedures. With a competitive salary around $75,000 and standout perks, this position is ideal for seasoned paralegals seeking stability and prestige in the heart of the Rocky Mountain region.

Key Responsibilities

The Litigation Paralegal will handle a dynamic workload, ensuring seamless case progression in a high-volume practice. Core duties include:

• Managing full case lifecycles, from filing complaints to trial execution, including all discovery phases under Rules 16 and 26.
• Preparing and e-filing documents in Colorado state courts and federal districts, maintaining impeccable compliance.
• Coordinating depositions: scheduling witnesses, preparing outlines, exhibits, and transcripts.
• Supporting trial preparation by organizing evidence, witness lists, motions, and courtroom tech setups.
• Mastering docketing systems and electronic calendaring to track deadlines, hearings, and filings accurately.
• Transcribing dictation from attorneys swiftly and error-free, often under tight timelines.
• Arranging travel logistics for attorneys, experts, and clients, including flights, hotels, and ground transport.
• Navigating heavy caseloads while prioritizing urgent matters in medical malpractice and personal injury suits.

This role demands proactive problem-solving and the ability to anticipate attorney needs in a collaborative team setting.

Required Qualifications

To succeed, candidates must bring proven expertise tailored to Colorado's legal environment:

• Minimum 3+ years as a litigation paralegal or legal assistant, with Colorado state experience mandatory.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Word (formatting complex legal docs) and Outlook (calendaring/emails).
• In-depth knowledge of FRCP Rules 16 (discovery plans) and 26 (disclosures/discovery scope).
• Hands-on experience with state/federal e-filings, depositions, and trial prep.
• Familiarity with docketing software and electronic calendaring databases; Time Matters a plus.
• Strong skills in managing high-volume workloads, transcribing dictation, and coordinating travel.
• Fluency in legal and medical terminology, especially for malpractice/personal injury cases.

Ideal candidates are detail-oriented, tech-savvy, and resilient under pressure, with a track record of supporting cases to verdict.
