Overview

At Storm Counselors at The Corona Law Firm, we specialize in plaintiffs' civil litigation, focusing on policyholder / first-party property insurance claims in state and federal Courts. Based in Houston, Texas, our firm is driven by a commitment to uncovering the truth, fighting for justice, and delivering results for home and business owners.

Founded on principles of integrity and advocacy, our team works tirelessly to represent clients in challenging legal disputes. With plans for significant growth, we are poised to 10x or more our caseload in the next one to two years. Joining our team means becoming part of a supportive and collaborative environment that values professionalism, dedication, and excellence.

As the Civil Litigation Paralegal, you will serve as the cornerstone of our legal and operational excellence. This is not a beginner position—it requires a seasoned professional with significant experience in civil litigation, particularly in plaintiff-side firms. Yet at the same time, you must not be stuck in your ways and be able to adapt and flow with new technology and processes. You will manage complex cases from inception to trial while overseeing office operations, working hand-in-hand with staff and attorneys, and ensuring the seamless day-to-day functioning of the firm.

This position offers the opportunity to directly impact our firm's growth, with responsibilities ranging from trial preparation to operational strategy.

Plaintiff personal injury litigation experience at a medium-to-large firm generally provides good cross-over experience. If you have fewer years of experience we are looking for someone that was a Rockstar during that experience with heavy client contact and litigation work.
  • File-to-trial experience with a strong emphasis on trial preparation and motion drafting.
  • Paralegal certification from an ABA accredited program is strongly preferred, however open to candidates without the certification but 10+ years litigation experience and equivalent practical experience.
