About the Role

Very Law, a sophisticated downtown Pittsburgh law firm, is seeking a highly organized and motivated Paralegal to join our growing team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys being an integral part of a collaborative law firm while building a long-term career in a role with significant growth potential.

This position will initially focus on providing administrative and operational support to attorneys and the firm, helping ensure the efficient day-to-day management of legal matters. As the firm continues to grow, this role will naturally evolve to include more substantive paralegal responsibilities such as legal research, drafting pleadings and legal documents, and case management.

If you're someone who enjoys learning, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is excited by the opportunity to grow alongside a successful boutique law firm, we'd love to hear from you.

Who We Are

At Very Law, our mission is simple: to help people when they need it most. That same commitment extends to our team. We’ve built a modern, paperless workspace with top-of-the-line tools so you can focus on meaningful work — not administrative inefficiencies. You’ll find a collegial environment where collaboration is encouraged, but your autonomy and judgment are trusted.

Our Core Values

  • Do good
  • Build trust
  • Lead compassionately
  • Communicate honestly
  • Achieve your best

What We Offer

  • Health insurance with low deductible
  • 401k matching and profit sharing
  • Dental, vision, life, and short- and long-term disability insurance
  • Generous paid time off and holidays
  • Convenient, 24/7 paid garage parking
  • Professional development and training opportunities

What You'll Be Doing

  • Provide administrative and legal support to attorneys to ensure the efficient management of client matters and daily firm operations.
  • Coordinate attorney calendars, meetings, deadlines, court filings, travel, and other scheduling needs.
  • Manage incoming calls, emails, correspondence, and client communications with professionalism and discretion.
  • Assist with client intake, file management, and maintaining accurate records within the firm's case management system.
  • Collaborate with attorneys and staff to support daily operations, enhance workflow efficiency, and contribute to the continued growth and success of the firm.
  • Manage the full client billing cycle, including preparing invoices, processing billing, maintaining financial records, and assisting with other accounting and administrative functions.
  • Support the firm's financial operations by processing vendor invoices, managing accounts payable, and ensuring timely payments.
  • Maintain accurate billing and financial records, reconcile expenses, and assist in resolving accounting discrepancies.
  • Assist with financial reporting and other administrative accounting functions to support the firm's daily operations.
  • Conduct legal research using statutes, regulations, case law, and other legal resources.
  • Assist with drafting, proofreading, and revising pleadings, motions, discovery, correspondence, and other legal documents as responsibilities grow.
  • Assist attorneys with case management, legal analysis, and preparation for hearings, depositions, mediations, trials, and court filings while monitoring case deadlines and calendars.
  • Organize and maintain case files, discovery materials, exhibits, and legal documents to ensure accurate records and efficient case progression.

What We're Looking For

  • Associate's degree, Bachelor's degree, or Paralegal Certificate preferred.
  • Minimum of three years of experience in a law firm or legal environment preferred.
  • Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills.
  • A proactive, team-oriented mindset with a willingness to learn and grow.
  • Ability to maintain confidentiality while exercising sound judgment and professionalism.
  • Experience drafting pleadings, motions, discovery, correspondence, and other legal documents preferred.
  • Experience with legal research tools and case management software preferred.

Why Join Us?

We know talented professionals have options. At Very Law, you’ll find a place where your skills are valued, your ideas are heard, and your contributions directly support the firm’s mission and growth. You'll begin by becoming an essential member of our operations team while learning the firm's practice, processes, and clients. As Very Law continues to expand, you'll have the opportunity to take on increasingly substantive legal work, develop new skills, and grow your career alongside the firm.

All applications will be kept confidential, other than to references.
