COMPASS LAW GROUP Your Battle. Our Compass.

At Compass Law Group, we are more than a law firm — we are a force for change. We exist to guide individuals through life's most challenging legal moments with clarity, courage, and an unwavering commitment to results. Every case we take, every client we serve, and every team member we invest in reflects our belief that people deserve more than ordinary representation — they deserve a team that fights for them.

Building a firm of this caliber requires exceptional people. People who are bold enough to challenge the status quo, sharp enough to navigate complexity, and compassionate enough to never lose sight of the human being at the center of every case. Every Case has a name. Every name has a story. We fight for both.

If that sounds like you — keep reading.

OUR FIVE ORGANIZATIONAL CERTAINTIES:

These are not values we aspire to. They are the standards we live by — every case, every client, every day.

1. We Lead With Purpose Everything we do is driven by a clear and unwavering mission — to deliver exceptional legal outcomes for the people who trust us with their most difficult moments. Purpose is not a poster on our wall. It is the lens through which every decision is made.

2. We Build, We Don't Just Maintain We are a firm in motion. We are constantly evolving, improving, and innovating — and we expect our team to do the same. If you are energized by growth, challenged by complexity, and excited by the opportunity to build something meaningful, you will thrive here.

3. Excellence is Non-Negotiable We hold ourselves to the highest standard in everything — client communication, case strategy, team collaboration, and personal accountability. Good enough is never good enough at Compass Law Group. We pursue excellence not because it is required, but because our clients deserve nothing less.

4. People Are Our Greatest Asset We invest deeply in our team — in their development, their wellbeing, their growth, and their success. We recognize that the quality of our work is a direct reflection of the quality of our culture. When our people thrive, our clients thrive.

5. Integrity Is Our Foundation We do not cut corners. We do not compromise our values for convenience. We operate with radical transparency, ethical decision-making, and the kind of honesty that builds lasting trust — with our clients, our partners, and each other.

If our mission moves you the way it moves us, your seat is waiting.

THE OPPORTUNITY:

Some paralegals file documents. Some manage calendars. Some sit behind a desk and wait to be told what to do next. That is not who we are looking for.

WHAT THIS ROLE ACTUALLY MEANS:

As a Litigation Paralegal at Compass Law Group you are not a support function. You are a critical member of the litigation team — the engine behind every case strategy, the foundation beneath every attorney's work, and the steady hand that keeps complex litigation moving forward with precision and purpose.

You will work directly alongside our litigation attorneys — supporting, anticipating, and executing at the highest level. You will know your cases inside and out. You will see issues before they become problems. You will bring solutions before you are asked for them. And you will do it all with the kind of professionalism, discretion, and commitment that our clients deserve.

This is not a role for someone who needs to be managed. This is a role for someone who is ready to lead from their seat — and make every attorney they work with more effective because of it.

We are looking for a litigation paralegal who is sharp, strategic, and relentless. Someone who understands that behind every case is a real person — counting on this team to fight for them with everything we have. Someone who does not wait for direction — they create it. Someone who makes the attorneys they work with better — every single day.

If that is you — this is your moment.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN:

Discovery Management & Litigation Support You are the architect of the discovery process. You draft, propound, and respond to written discovery — interrogatories, requests for production, requests for admission — with precision, strategy, and a deep understanding of what each case needs. You organize and manage discovery responses with meticulous attention to detail and ensure nothing is ever missed or late.

Medical Record Review & Case Analysis You obtain, organize, and analyze medical records, bills, and treatment documentation with a sharp and experienced eye. You translate complex medical information into clear, compelling summaries that give our attorneys exactly what they need to build and argue the strongest possible case. You understand the connection between medical treatment and damages — and you leverage that knowledge strategically.

Deposition Preparation & Support You prepare deposition summaries, organize exhibits, and assist attorneys in building deposition outlines and strategies. You know how to read a deposition transcript for the details that matter — and you flag them before anyone has to ask.

Motion Drafting & Legal Research You draft motions, oppositions, briefs, and supporting documents with confidence, clarity, and legal precision. You conduct thorough legal research using Westlaw, LexisNexis, or similar platforms and present your findings in a way that is immediately actionable for the attorneys you support.

Trial Preparation & Trial Support You are trial-ready — always. You assist in preparing trial binders, exhibit lists, witness files, and trial notebooks with the kind of organizational thoroughness that makes our attorneys feel fully prepared and fully supported. When trial comes you are in the room — ready to execute whatever is needed in real time.

Case File Management & Organization You maintain impeccably organized case files — physical and digital — ensuring that every document, every deadline, and every critical piece of information is exactly where it needs to be when it needs to be there. You are the standard bearer for organization on this team.

Court Filing & Procedural Compliance You manage all aspects of court filings — electronic and physical — with complete accuracy and strict adherence to court rules, local rules, and procedural requirements. You know Los Angeles Superior Court and you know it well. Nothing is filed late. Nothing is filed incorrectly. Ever.

Expert Coordination & Management You coordinate with expert witnesses — medical experts, accident reconstructionists, economists, and others — scheduling, managing communications, and ensuring all expert materials are organized and prepared to support case strategy and trial preparation.

Client Communication & Support You communicate with clients professionally, compassionately, and clearly — providing updates, gathering information, and ensuring that our clients always feel informed and supported throughout the litigation process. You understand that for our clients this is not just a case — it is their life. And you treat it that way.

Deadline & Calendar Management You work in close coordination with our calendaring clerk to ensure every deadline — statutes of limitations, discovery cutoffs, motion deadlines, court dates — is tracked with absolute precision. You do not miss deadlines. Full stop.

WHO YOU ARE

You are a seasoned litigation paralegal who brings both technical expertise and genuine passion to the work. You are organized to a level that borders on extraordinary. You anticipate what is needed before it is asked. You communicate with clarity and professionalism. And you never — under any circumstances — lose sight of the person at the center of every case you touch.

You are not looking for a place to show up and collect a paycheck. You are looking for a place where your expertise is valued, your growth is intentional, and your work genuinely matters.

You bring:

• Minimum 3–5 years of plaintiff personal injury litigation paralegal experience — you know this practice area deeply and you are ready to own it
• Proven experience managing all phases of personal injury litigation from complaint through trial
• Strong discovery drafting and management skills — interrogatories, RPDs, RFAs, and responses
• Demonstrated ability to read, analyze, and summarize medical records and treatment documentation
• Experience with motion drafting, legal research, and brief preparation
• Hands-on trial preparation and trial support experience
• Proficiency in e-filing with Los Angeles Superior Court and familiarity with local rules and procedures
• Strong working knowledge of case management software — Filevine, or similar platforms
• Proficiency in Westlaw, LexisNexis, or comparable legal research platforms
• Exceptional organizational and time management skills with an obsessive eye for detail
• Outstanding written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to manage multiple cases simultaneously without sacrificing quality or missing deadlines
• Bilingual in Spanish and English — strongly preferred

It would be a bonus if you also have:

• Paralegal certificate or degree from an ABA-approved program
• Experience with catastrophic injury, wrongful death, or complex personal injury litigation
• Familiarity with Medicare, Medi-Cal, lien resolution, and subrogation
• Experience working directly alongside litigation attorneys in a fast-paced high-volume PI firm
• Knowledge of medical terminology and personal injury treatment protocols

THIS POSITION IS NOT FOR YOU IF:

• You need constant supervision and direction to manage your caseload
• You are uncomfortable with urgency, high expectations, and strict deadlines
• You treat clients as file numbers rather than people who are counting on this team
• You are satisfied with adequate when excellence is what our clients deserve
• You are not ready to be a true owner of your role and the work that comes with it
• Organization, precision, and attention to detail do not come naturally to you

• Performance Bonuses: Annual performance-based incentives
