Litigation Paralegal at Anderson Law… · Tel Aviv

We are seeking a Litigation Paralegal to join our busy and varied disputes team, providing support across the department on a broad range of contentious matters.

This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated and commercially minded paralegal who is looking to gain high-quality experience across complex litigation, insolvency and international disputes.

The Role

Our disputes team are instructed on a diverse caseload, including:

• High Court litigation, involving complex commercial, negligence, fraud and contractual disputes;
• Contentious and non-contentious insolvency matters, acting for a range of stakeholders including insolvency practitioners; and
• International arbitration, including substantial cross-border disputes.

The successful candidate will work across the whole department rather than being assigned to a single area or fee earner. You will support solicitors and partners at different stages of matters, giving you exposure to a wide variety of cases and clients.

Your responsibilities are likely to include:

• Assisting with the day-to-day conduct of litigation, insolvency and arbitration matters;
• Preparing and organising court, hearing and arbitration bundles;
• Preparing cost schedules;
• Drafting correspondence, chronologies and other legal documents;
• Undertaking legal and factual research;
• Reviewing and analysing documents and evidence;
• Assisting with disclosure and document management exercises;
• Liaising with clients, counsel, experts, courts, tribunals and other third parties;
• Supporting the preparation of witness statements and evidence;
• Monitoring deadlines and assisting with case management; and
• Providing general support to fee earners across the disputes department as required.

About You

We are looking for someone who is organised, proactive and comfortable working in a fast-paced litigation environment. Given the breadth of the role, you will need to be adaptable and willing to assist wherever required across the department.

You should have:

• A strong academic background and a genuine interest in litigation and dispute resolution;
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills;
• Strong attention to detail;
• Good organisational and time-management skills, with the ability to manage competing deadlines;
• Sound research and analytical skills;
• A professional and commercially minded approach; and
• The ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.

Previous paralegal or litigation experience would be advantageous, particularly experience of High Court proceedings, insolvency or arbitration, although we are equally interested in candidates who can demonstrate the aptitude and enthusiasm to develop in these areas.
