Texas Suits is seeking a highly organized, detail-oriented, and motivated full-time Litigation Paralegal to join our growing high-volume debt collection and civil litigation team.
This position is designed for someone with 3–5 years of litigation experience who can hit the ground running with minimal supervision. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment, can independently manage a large docket, and is comfortable balancing drafting, client communication, collections efforts, and court coordination on a daily basis.
While our practice is primarily debt collection and civil litigation, we also handle probate matters, and this area is expected to grow. The successful candidate should expect to assist with probate work as part of their regular duties. Prior probate experience is a plus but is not required.
