The Role

We are looking for an experienced litigation paralegal to join our team on a 12-month fixed term basis, covering a period of maternity leave. This is an excellent opportunity to work on a varied caseload of commercial disputes, supporting fee earners at all stages of litigation.

The level of responsibility and exposure to high-level work for paralegals is unusually high at JHA. This is a fantastic role for a self-motivated and autonomous individual, who may be seeking a different environment than the usual large corporate law firm. There will be opportunities to learn from and work alongside hard-working, accomplished professionals who strive to provide the most effective advice and strategies.

Key Responsibilities

• Working closely with and supporting partners, associates, and paralegals - assisting with all stages of commercial litigation from pre-action through to trial.
• Drafting and reviewing correspondence, court documents, and ancillary materials.
• Conducting legal research and preparing case summaries and chronologies.
• Assisting with document management, archiving, and electronic disclosure (including document review and bundles).
• Maintaining matter files and ensuring key deadlines are tracked and met.
• Producing consistent, accurate and high-quality work.
• Other general administrative duties as necessary.
• Willingness to be involved, driven by the desire to learn and develop yourself.

Ideal Qualifications & Experience

• At least 2 years of experience as a commercial litigation paralegal with a reputable firm.
• Solid understanding of the Civil Procedure Rules and court processes.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, organisation skills, and attention to detail.
• Desire to be part of a forward-thinking, fast-paced and dynamic firm.
• Proactive with a hands-on attitude and an enthusiasm for engaging in a wide breadth of duties.
