About the role
We are looking for a highly motivated, innately curious Legal Operations Specialist to help our litigation team run efficiently and scale thoughtfully. This role combines hands-on litigation support—including matter tracking, litigation holds, discovery preservation and collection, and subpoena processing—with the opportunity to design and continually improve the systems and processes behind that work.
You will own the operational details that keep matters moving while building playbooks, easy-to-use knowledge management systems, and repeatable workflows that make the team more effective. You will also explore and implement practical ways to use Rippling AI, other AI tools, and third-party platforms to streamline litigation workstreams.
The ideal candidate finds joy in turning complex, recurring tasks into simple, scalable solutions. You are meticulous about details and deadlines, proactive about solving problems, and excited to experiment with AI-driven automations while exercising sound judgment about confidentiality, accuracy, and appropriate attorney oversight.
This role reports directly to the Sr. Director/AGC–Head of Litigation and works closely with the legal and compliance team, outside counsel, and cross-functional stakeholders
What you will do
- Support litigation matters from intake through resolution. Maintain an accurate, up-to-date matter tracker that captures key developments, deadlines, owners, and next steps, giving the team clear visibility into its litigation portfolio.
- Coordinate litigation holds and discovery preservation. Under attorney direction, manage hold issuance, acknowledgments, reminders, updates, and releases.
- Manage discovery collection logistics. Coordinate with internal stakeholders, outside counsel, and e-discovery providers to identify relevant data sources and organize and document collections and review.
- Own the subpoena process. Manage intake, tracking, and processing of subpoenas, with attorney support, including responses, collections, and productions.
- Help the litigation team build and iterate on litigation operations playbooks. Translate recurring work into clear procedures, templates, checklists, and escalation paths, and refine them as the team’s needs evolve.
- Design and build AI-powered workflows and file storage to reduce manual work across intake, tracking, reminders, reporting and knowledge retrieval.
- Measure and improve how the team works. Track matter volumes, turnaround times, and workflow bottlenecks, and use those insights to improve efficiency and reliability.
What you will need
- 3–5+ years of experience in legal operations, litigation support, or a legal assistant or paralegal role, ideally supporting litigation or investigations. A combination of in-house technology company and law firm experience is a plus.
- Hands-on experience supporting litigation workflows, including matter tracking, litigation holds, discovery preservation and collection, and subpoena processing.
- Familiarity with e-discovery tools, matter tracking platforms, and document or knowledge management systems, along with the ability to learn new tools quickly.
- A builder’s mindset: you enjoy creating scalable solutions, simplifying complex processes, and turning one-off tasks into repeatable workflows.
- Genuine curiosity about AI and excitement about exploring AI-driven automations for litigation workstreams. Experience improving workflows with AI, automation, or no-code tools is a plus; coding experience is not required.
- Strong organizational skills and meticulous attention to detail, with the ability to manage competing priorities and time-sensitive deadlines.
- Sound judgment and discretion when handling sensitive information, including knowing when to escalate questions or seek attorney review.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with attorneys, technical partners, vendors, and other stakeholders.
- A resourceful, self-starting approach and a willingness to test ideas, learn from feedback, and continually improve how work gets done.
- A bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.
- We welcome candidates who are earlier in their in-house careers and bring strong litigation support fundamentals, a passion for building better systems, and an eagerness to grow in a fast-paced technology environment.

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in litigation specialist jobs.
- Two or more years of experience in civil litigation support or a paralegal role
- Proficiency with case management software such as Filevine, Clio, or similar platforms

- Associate or bachelor's degree in paralegal studies, legal studies, or a related field
Tips for Your Litigation Specialist Job Search
Tailor your resume to case types
Litigation specialists hired in insurance defense read resumes differently than those at plaintiff firms. Identify which case types appear in the posting, then mirror that language when describing your docket management, discovery, or trial prep experience. Generic litigation resumes get filtered out early.
Highlight e-discovery and case management tools
Employers list specific platforms in job postings far more often than most candidates expect. Name the exact case management and document review software you've used in your resume's skills section, not buried in a job description. Matching tool names to the posting signals immediate productivity.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists litigation specialist openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target postings by practice area, not just title
A litigation specialist role at a workers' compensation firm requires different preparation than one at a mass-tort plaintiff shop. Search by practice area keywords alongside your job title to surface openings where your specific case-type experience is the primary qualification, not a secondary one.
Prepare for a skills-based screening interview
Many litigation specialist interviews open with scenario questions: how you'd calendar a summary judgment deadline, handle a missing exhibit binder, or manage conflicting deposition schedules. Practice walking through a real workflow step by step, since interviewers are testing process knowledge, not just communication.
Negotiate start date around active dockets
Firms hiring litigation specialists often have pending trial dates or discovery cutoffs driving urgency. If you're currently supporting active matters, name your earliest available date in your cover note and confirm it at the offer stage. Misaligned start dates kill otherwise strong offers in this role.
Litigation Specialist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most litigation specialists?
The most active employers for litigation specialists right now are Greenberg Traurig, Husch Blackwell, and US Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys and the Office of the U.S. Attorneys, and the most openings are in Texas, Ohio, and California, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Law firms, insurance carriers, and large hospital systems tend to post the highest volume of these roles.
How many litigation specialist jobs are remote?
About 67% of litigation specialist openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, though availability varies by employer type. Document review, docket monitoring, and administrative case support tasks are most commonly offered remotely, while roles involving in-person court filings, trial preparation, or client-facing work typically require on-site presence.
How do you become a litigation specialist?
Start with an associate or bachelor's degree in paralegal or legal studies, or complete an accredited paralegal certificate program. Then gain hands-on experience in a law firm or corporate legal department handling discovery, pleadings, or docket management. Building proficiency in case management software and civil procedure rules accelerates your path to a specialist-level role.
Can you get hired as a litigation specialist without much experience?
Entry-level litigation specialist roles do exist, particularly at insurance defense firms and legal staffing agencies that value trainable candidates over experienced ones. Emphasize any internship, law clerk, or legal administrative work you've done, even if brief. Demonstrating familiarity with court filing systems, docketing deadlines, and basic discovery workflows makes a strong impression without years of experience.
What does the litigation specialist interview process look like?
Most litigation specialist interviews include an initial phone screen focused on your case-type background, followed by one or two in-person or video rounds with a supervising attorney or office manager. Expect scenario-based questions about deadline management, discovery disputes, or document organization. Some employers administer a short skills assessment covering court rules or software they use in-house.
Where can I find and apply to litigation specialist jobs?
You can find and apply to litigation specialist jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search the available roles to find positions that match your practice area experience and location preferences, then apply directly to each listing that fits.
