The posting

Litigation Paralegal – (Onsite) – Austin, TX - VW

We need someone with 2–6 years of litigation paralegal experience in a law firm who has a solid working knowledge of Texas state and federal court rules, filing procedures, and litigation deadlines. You should be comfortable handling multiple matters and competing deadlines in a busy, collaborative litigation and bankruptcy practice. You should also have a track record of supporting cases from start to finish, including discovery, e-filing, and trial preparation. Bonus points if you have hands-on Everlaw or other e-discovery experience, a paralegal certification, or onsite trial support experience.

Responsibilities

  • Support attorneys through every phase of litigation, from case intake and investigation through discovery, trial, and appeal, across Vela Wood's litigation and bankruptcy matters in the Austin office.
  • Own case management and docketing: keep case files, calendars, deadlines, and dockets accurate so every assignment is on time and meets court requirements.
  • Draft, proofread, format, and prepare pleadings, motions, subpoenas, discovery requests, and other legal documents for attorney review. Electronically file them in Texas state and federal courts under the applicable rules.
  • Manage discovery and evidence: collect, review, organize, and produce documents using Everlaw and other litigation support tools. Maintain electronic and physical case files, exhibits, and correspondence.
  • Do legal research and summarize case materials, including discovery responses, deposition transcripts, and other key documents, so attorneys have what they need.
  • Lead preparation for depositions, hearings, mediations, and trials: schedule, prepare exhibits, and build trial notebooks, exhibit lists, and witness materials. Provide on-site trial support and travel as needed.
  • Work closely with attorneys at every level (from equity partners to associates) and coordinate with clients, witnesses, experts, vendors, opposing counsel, and court staff.

Requirements

  • Litigation paralegal experience in a law firm setting
  • Working knowledge of Texas state and federal court rules,​ filing procedures,​ and litigation deadlines
  • Ability to adapt working style across attorney seniority levels (managing partners to associates)
  • Experience with corporate formations
  • Experience preparing legal documents, assisting with discovery, and supporting litigation matters
  • Exposure to trial preparation (organizing exhibits, trial notebooks, supporting documentation)
  • Experience with cap tables and option plan management
  • Familiarity with electronic court filing systems and litigation case management processes

Why Join

  • A boutique firm with only four equity partners, so you get direct access to leadership and colleagues who know you by name.
  • A people-first culture built on one rule: "above all else, be a good human." Vela Wood values your personal time and pays you for all the time you work. Hours rise around trials and deadlines and then ease off, and you'll never be expected to work Big Law hours.
  • A new role created by growth: the litigation team has more work than people.

Work setup: In-office at the Austin office about 4 days a week at first, with the option to move to about 3 days a week once you're settled in.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
