Cerami Search Group is partnering with a highly respected Houston law firm seeking an experienced Senior Trial Paralegal to support complex commercial litigation matters.

This opportunity is built for a true trial paralegal — someone who thrives in high-stakes environments, understands the pace and pressure of trial work, and plays a critical role from discovery through verdict.

This is not an entry-level position. You'll be deeply involved in trial preparation, e-discovery management, and in-court support, working alongside seasoned trial attorneys handling sophisticated litigation.

What You'll Do

• Support commercial litigation matters from case inception through trial
• Lead and assist with trial preparation — exhibits, witness files, trial binders, and courtroom logistics
• Manage and coordinate e-discovery, including document review, productions, databases, and vendors
• Assist attorneys during trials, hearings, depositions, and mediations
• Prepare and manage pleadings, motions, subpoenas, and discovery responses
• Organize expert materials, demonstratives, and trial technology
• Keep cases moving efficiently in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment

What They're Looking For

• 5+ years of heavy commercial litigation trial experience (law firm required)
• Proven hands-on trial prep and in-court support experience
• Strong e-discovery background and comfort with litigation databases
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and proactive
• Composed and confident in high-intensity trial settings
• Team-oriented professional who anticipates attorney needs and takes ownership

Why This Role Stands Out

• Meaningful, hands-on involvement in real trials
• Sophisticated commercial litigation docket
• Trial-focused attorneys who truly value paralegals
• Competitive compensation and long-term career stability
• Convenient west Houston location just outside the 610 Loop

Cerami Search Group is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All applicants are evaluated based on qualifications without regard to any protected status under applicable law.
