Oakland, United States Bryan Schwartz Law, P.C. Full time

Bryan Schwartz Law is looking for a Paralegal/Legal Assistant


One of the top plaintiff-side employment law firms in California, Bryan Schwartz Law has received national recognition for its advocacy on behalf of workers in discrimination, misclassification, reasonable accommodation, and Wage/Hour matters. Our paralegals work closely with attorneys and, as appropriate, take on attorney-caliber work, such as drafting declarations and crafting strategies for depositions. Previous law firm experience and/or a stated interest in future work as a lawyer are not requirements for this position; applicants must, however, be interested in social justice and civil rights, and should be prepared to "roll with the punches'' of working in a fast-paced field. We also offer hybrid, remote and in-person, work opportunities. 


We are a laid-back, collegial workplace that places an impetus on camaraderie and community. An appreciation of good food and wine is appreciated, but not required 


In addition to the job duties outlined below, our paralegals are encouraged to take on long-term projects in areas of the firm's work that are of particular interest to them. Past examples of these projects include designing class member outreach websites for our cases and integrating live analytics into our system for managing potential clients. Please note that the following lists are not meant to be exhaustive - each new case and client brings along new challenges, responsibilities, and opportunities

 

Job duties include, but are not limited to: 

  • Conducting intakes with potential clients
  • Investigative research into potential and active cases
  • Drafting, filing, and serving legal documents
  • Maintaining general contact and communications with clients, class members, counsel, etc.
  • Calendar and manage case deadlines 
  • Scheduling court reporters, depositions, mediations, etc.
  • Creating necessary materials for hearings, mediations, and other court appearances
  • Summarizing depositions, interrogatories, and testimony
  • Discovery/document review
  • General office and receptionist duties (as necessary)


Requirements:

  • Four-year college degree
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills 
  • Detail-oriented
  • Ability to multitask
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and Google applications
  • Bilingual not required but a plus


Please submit your resume, transcript, writing sample, and cover letter detailing your relevant experience. You may submit your application materials in the same PDF or you may email copies to patxy@bryanschwartzlaw.com.
