Litigation Assistant (Business Litigation)

Location: Sherman Oaks, CA
Employment Type: Full-Time | In-Office

About the Role

Crew Connectors is hiring a Litigation Assistant for a leading mid-size Los Angeles law firm with a strong civil litigation practice representing venture-backed tech companies, startups, and founders across complex business matters.

The firm operates with a highly collaborative, high-performance team structure where attorneys and staff work closely together. This role is more operations-driven than a traditional paralegal position, combining litigation support with high-level administrative execution for attorneys and partners.

This is a hands-on role for someone who is highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable operating at the center of case activity, attorney workflow, and day-to-day office execution.

Position Summary

We are seeking a Litigation Assistant with 1–5 years of civil litigation experience to support attorneys across both litigation workflows and administrative operations.

This role places a strong emphasis on calendaring, court filings, document preparation, and litigation organization, while also supporting attorneys with administrative responsibilities such as travel coordination and expense management.

The ideal candidate is structured, process-driven, and capable of managing multiple priorities across active litigation matters while keeping attorneys organized and on track.

- Strong experience with California state and federal court filings
- Advanced calendaring experience, including litigation deadline tracking (Deadlines.com or similar preferred)

- Ability to manage multiple active matters in a fast-paced environment
