About the Role

At Pavago , one of our clients is hiring a highly organized and detail-oriented Paralegal to provide substantive legal support across litigation, corporate, and compliance matters.

- Legal research and analysis

- Legal drafting and document preparation

- Litigation and discovery support

- Case and deadline management

The ideal candidate has strong legal research and writing skills, exceptional attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple legal matters and deadlines simultaneously.
