Equivity is looking for a part-time virtual paralegal with experience assisting California practices in a variety of areas including family law, personal injury, and general litigation. The selected candidate will be very technologically adept and have excellent Word, Excel, and Adobe skills. In addition, the candidate should have experience working with cloud-based practice management software, preferably Clio. If you have at least three (3) years of experience working as a California paralegal, have previously assisted attorneys remotely, take pride in your work, pay meticulous attention to the details, and are an experienced, technologically savvy, self-starter, we want to hear from you!

More about our company:

Equivity provides virtual assistance to clients across the United States, with specialties in administrative, marketing, and paralegal support services. Equivity works closely with our clients to provide them with virtual paralegals who are experienced in their field and have successfully worked in a remote or virtual environment. Our law firm clients range from solo practitioners to multi-partner firms, and run across all specialty areas of law including litigation, family law, bankruptcy, real estate, and much more.

Our virtual paralegals work with a high degree of autonomy and are responsible for developing relationships with our clients. Because we provide extremely attentive service to our clients, you must be available to respond to client communications throughout the business day within one hour by email, phone, and text, you should also be available to work on projects throughout the hours of 9am – 6pm Pacific Time. All of this work is done remotely, meaning that you can work from home.

The selected candidate would be hired as a part-time W-2 employee of Equivity, not a 1099 independent contractor. We are looking for somebody who has at least 20 hours per week of availability, and the pay rate is $25 per hour, with opportunities for advancement throughout your employment with Equivity. We are a growing business and are looking for a virtual paralegal who is excited to partner with us and is interested in a long-term role with our company.
