Experienced Family Law Paralegal (Remote, Paid Trial Project → Ongoing Work) - Contract to Hire
I am a solo family law attorney seeking an experienced family law paralegal for a short paid trial project, with the potential for ongoing remote work.
This is not an entry-level role. I am looking for someone who can handle family law tasks with minimal supervision, exercise good judgment, and deliver clean, professional work product.
Typical responsibilities may include:
- Organizing and summarizing mandatory financial disclosures
- Drafting Sworn Financial Statements, Certificates of Compliance, Parenting Plans, and routine pleadings based on existing templates.
- Preparing case materials for hearings
- Drafting client communications
- Managing family law workflows in a small-firm environment
Availability Requirement:
- Approximately 15 hours per week
- Availability in half-day blocks (e.g., mornings or afternoons)
- Consistent weekday availability preferred
- This role is best suited for someone who prefers focused, predictable work blocks rather than sporadic, task-by-task assignments.
Requirements:
- Prior U.S.-based family law paralegal experience
- Comfortable drafting and formatting documents in Microsoft Word
- Experience using Clio, Dropbox, and Lexis AI
- Experience working remotely for a solo or small law firm preferred
- Able to work independently and ask thoughtful questions when needed
Trial Engagement:
- This role will begin with a small paid trial project (1–2 hours). If it’s a good fit on both sides, there is potential for ongoing work at approximately 15 hours per week.
Please communicate only through Upwork. Applications submitted outside the platform will not be considered
