About the Opportunity
Grungo Law is seeking a highly organized and detail-oriented Litigation Scheduling and Records Coordinator to provide dedicated administrative support to the Litigation Department. This role is specifically designed to relieve attorneys and paralegals of high-volume scheduling and records management tasks, enabling the legal team to focus their time and expertise on the substantive demands of active litigation.
This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated administrative professional with an interest in the legal field who brings strong organizational skills, a professional communication style, and the ability to manage a high volume of concurrent tasks with accuracy and efficiency. Prior legal experience is preferred but not required. The firm will provide comprehensive onboarding and role-specific training to the right candidate.
What You Will Do
The Litigation Scheduling and Records Coordinator will serve as the operational backbone of the Litigation Department's scheduling and records functions. The primary responsibilities of this role are as follows:
Deposition and Litigation Scheduling
- Schedule and coordinate all depositions for the Litigation Department, including communication with opposing counsel offices, court reporters, videographers, and interpreters as needed
- Confirm deposition logistics, locations, and attendance with all relevant parties and maintain accurate scheduling records
- Monitor the litigation calendar and provide the legal team with advance notice of upcoming depositions, hearings, filing deadlines, and case milestones
- Reschedule and adjust deposition appointments as required, managing all related communications in a timely and professional manner
- Coordinate scheduling for internal litigation meetings, client appointments, and department-related events
- Communicate with court personnel and opposing counsel to confirm procedural details and scheduling requirements
Medical Records, Medical Billing, and Lien Requests
- Submit, track, and follow up on all requests for medical records and medical bills on behalf of the Litigation Department

- Process incoming and outgoing correspondence related to scheduling and records requests on behalf of the legal team
- Respond to internal inquiries from attorneys and paralegals regarding the status of scheduling confirmations and outstanding records
- Perform additional administrative tasks in support of the Litigation Department as assigned by the supervising attorney or paralegal
What This Role Is Not

It is not a paralegal role and does not involve the preparation of legal arguments, substantive legal research, drafting of pleadings, or independent legal analysis. The Litigation Scheduling and Records Coordinator is a role that offers meaningful, high-volume work within a professional legal environment and is well-suited to a candidate who takes pride in organizational excellence, reliable follow-through, and efficient administrative execution.
