Full Job Description

Litigation Paralegal – Plaintiff Civil Rights Litigation (Part-Time, Hybrid)

About the Firm

Cody Warner, P.C. is a New York City law firm dedicated to protecting the rights of people accused of crimes and those harmed by police misconduct.

Our firm actively litigates police misconduct claims in federal and state courts. Typical lawsuits include claims against NYPD officers and the City of New York for false arrest, malicious prosecution, and excessive force under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and New York state law.

We are looking for a compassionate and organized Litigation Paralegal to help move litigation forward.

Position Summary

The Litigation Paralegal will assist the attorney during all stages of the case, from pre-litigation all the way through trial.

The successful candidate will become the firm's primary coordinator for medical records, discovery responses, document organization, and litigation support.

The goal of this position is to ensure that every case moves efficiently through discovery while allowing the attorney to focus on depositions, motion practice, trial preparation, and litigation strategy.

The Litigation Paralegal will be expected to work 15-25 hours per week. Although the position is hybrid, it is primarily a remote-based position. In-person work will be mostly limited to going to court to get records, in-court assistance during trial, and witness prep meetings. Although the Litigation Paralegal should live within the metropolitan New York City area to be available for such in-person work, approximately 90% of the work will be completed remotely.

Maintain accurate case files, deadlines, and litigation calendars
Assist with trial preparation

Technology

Clio Manage
Microsoft OneDrive

Westlaw CoCounsel

Qualifications

Required:

2 years of civil litigation experience
Experience with NYSCEF and/or ECF/PACER
Experience with electronic case management systems (e.g., Clio)
