We are a leading two-attorney family law firm seeking an experienced paralegal to join our family law team. This is a high-ownership role --- you will handle substantive legal drafting, client communication, client support, and case management from start to finish.

Manage active caseloads across divorce, custody, support, and protective order matters

Coordinate with clients, opposing counsel, and court staff on scheduling, filings, and deadlines

Conduct legal research and summarize findings for attorney review

Maintain organized electronic and physical case files in compliance with firm procedures

E-file documents in Utah state courts and ensure all deadlines are calendared and met

Anticipate attorney needs and manage competing priorities with minimal supervision

What We're Looking For

5+ years of paralegal experience preferred

Familiarity with Utah district court procedures and e-filing systems

Good written communication skills --- you will be drafting, not just formatting

High attention to detail and the ability to manage a busy docket independently

Proficiency with legal practice management software (Clio or similar)

Professional demeanor in sensitive, emotionally charged client situations

ABA-approved paralegal certificate or paralegal studies degree preferred, equivalent experience considered. A bachelor's degree is also valued.
