Job description
The Opportunity
A well-regarded, mid-sized law firm in Midtown Atlanta needs a smart, organized, confident, high-energy Senior Litigation Paralegal to join its growing litigation practice group. This is a direct-hire, permanent position with the firm — not a contract role. You will be working with Big Law veteran attorneys in smaller, nimbler firm environment.
The firm handles sophisticated civil litigation for institutional and corporate clients, with a practice focused on commercial litigation, employment litigation, and internal investigations. If you have built your career doing substantive defense-side civil litigation work at a law firm — and you want to do more of it at a firm that takes paralegal contribution seriously — this is worth a close look.
If you are looking for a personal and professional challenge and have the demonstrated experience, we'd love to hear from you.
What You Will Do
Responsibilities
You will function as a senior-level paralegal across the full litigation lifecycle, working directly with attorneys on active matters. Responsibilities include:
Managing discovery, including document review, production, and coordination with e-discovery vendors
Drafting and assisting with pleadings, motions, and correspondence
Preparing for depositions, hearings, and trials — including exhibit preparation and witness files
Coordinating filings in state and federal court, including electronic filing (CM/ECF)
Organizing and maintaining case files, deadlines, and dockets across multiple active matters
Supporting internal investigations from intake through document collection and reporting
What We Are Looking For
Required
10+ years of litigation paralegal experience at a law firm, ideally a large corporate firm or strong boutique
Experience must be in civil litigation on the defense side — specifically commercial litigation or employment litigation defense.
Demonstrated experience with state and federal court practice and procedure
Ability to manage multiple matters simultaneously with strong organizational discipline
Bachelor's degree and/or paralegal certificate
Preferred
Experience with e-discovery platforms
Prior exposure to employment defense or complex commercial matters
Please note: Experience primarily in personal injury, criminal defense, plaintiff-side personal injury work or family law will not satisfy the requirements of this role. We appreciate your interest but ask that candidates apply only if their background matches the civil defense litigation profile described above.
Compensation & Details
Base salary: Commensurate with experience
Overtime eligible
Attractive benefits package through the firm
Location: Midtown Atlanta -hybrid
Employment type: Direct hire with the firm

Latitude will not disclose your identity or propose you to prospective clients without your prior consent. Candidates selected for further consideration will be contacted.
