- Cite-check and Bluebook briefs, assemble exhibits, and handle e-filing in federal district courts and administrative tribunals.
- Build case chronologies, document indices, privilege logs, and fact summaries based on discovery materials.
- Track deadlines, scheduling orders, and protective order obligations across parallel proceedings, including fast-paced ITC matters.
- Support hearings and trials, including courtroom presentation technology and witness preparation.
What You Need
- 3+ years of IP litigation or patent litigation experience as a paralegal.
- Bachelor's degree.
- Hands-on experience with Relativity or a comparable document review platform.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Advanced Microsoft Excel proficiency.
