Full Job Description

Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll is one of the largest and most diversified plaintiff-side litigation firms in the country, with more than 100 attorneys in eight offices. We champion the causes of real people—workers, consumers, small business owners, investors, and whistleblowers—working to deliver corporate reforms and fair markets for the common good. Our firm has earned an international reputation by litigating complex, high-stakes cases, many of which have resulted in landmark decisions on previously untried issues involving antitrust, securities, consumer rights, civil rights, employee benefits, human rights, and other far-reaching matters.

The ERISA/Employee Benefits group is seeking a highly experienced Senior Paralegal to support attorneys in complex, high-stakes litigation. The ideal candidate brings deep litigation experience and thrives in a fast-paced environment, with the ability to support cases from inception through trial. Trial experience is strongly preferred. The position involves some administrative responsibilities, which amounts to less than 25% of total responsibilities. The position is available in our Washington, D.C. or Minneapolis, MN office on a full-time basis

Required Qualifications:

At least 5 years paralegal litigation experience
Bachelor’s Degree
Exceptional organizational skills and ability to manage multiple deadlines under pressure
Excellent written and verbal communications skills
Advanced experience using Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint)
Proficiency with litigation technology, including e-discovery platforms and trial presentation tools such as TrialDirector or OnCue
Ability to perform job responsibilities independently, while being a team player
Strong work ethic, sense of professionalism, discretion, integrity, judgment, and respect for confidentiality
Willingness to assist, as necessary, to meet deadlines and improve workflow for the attorneys in the group
Ability to work overtime as needed

Key Responsibilities:

Support all phases of litigation, including discovery, pretrial preparation, trial, and post-trial activities
Prepare, cite-check, and assist in drafting legal documents, including pleadings, motions, discovery requests and responses
File pleadings and documents with the court, including filings under seal
Maintain case files, deadlines, and litigation calendars to ensure compliance with court rules and scheduling orders
Prepare and enter attorney reimbursable expenses; submit invoices and track payments
Communicate with clients, third-parties, and the court/clerk, as appropriate

Trial Preparation & Support (Strongly Preferred)

Assist attorneys in all aspects of trial preparation, including exhibit preparation, witness coordination, and trial binders
Manage and organize trial exhibits (both physical and electronic), including numbering & tracking
Coordinate logistics for trial, including courtroom technology, war room setup, and vendor management
Provide in-court support during trial, including electronic presentation of evidence (“hot seat” operation), real-time document retrieval, exhibit handling, and other assistance as needed

Schedule:

Full Time: 35-hour work week – typically Monday through Friday; 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. eastern time, with flexibility for overtime as needed. If the position is filled in D.C., it will be a hybrid and/or in-office position. If filled in Minnesota, the position will be remote but will require occasional in-person attendance at firm events in Minneapolis.

We offer a competitive salary, excellent benefits, and a wonderful work environment. The expected salary (excluding bonus) is $80,000-$100,000 per year or an hourly rate of $43.96. - $54.95. Actual pay will be determined based on experience and other job-related factors. You will be eligible to receive a year-end bonus, the issuance and amount of which are discretionary and dependent upon the Firm's profitability.

To be considered, please submit a cover letter and resume. Application materials should be submitted in the order outlined above, and as one single PDF document.

Cohen Milstein does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, gender (including pregnancy), nationality, religion, age, disability, gender identity, sexual orientation, or any other protected characteristics when making hiring, promotion, or other employment decisions. We are committed to recruiting and retaining a diverse workforce and to providing reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities in our job application process. We believe that our different perspectives and experiences enhance the quality of service we provide to clients and make the Firm a more vibrant and fulfilling place to work.
