Job Description

Platz Juris, PLLC is a Phoenix-based boutique law practice handling contract law, intellectual property, general business law, and civil litigation across multiple jurisdictions, including Arizona, Kansas, Minnesota, and several federal courts. We are a lean, high-quality practice that values precision, professionalism, and initiative.

ROLE DESCRIPTION We are seeking an experienced, certified paralegal to join our team on a part-time, remote basis. This is an excellent opportunity for a seasoned litigation paralegal who thrives in a fast-paced, independent environment and wants meaningful, substantive work — not busywork. You will work directly with the principal attorney and play an integral role in the day-to-day operations of the practice. This is a remote, part-time position. We strongly prefer candidates who are based in Arizona, as occasional in-person meetings in the Phoenix area may be required.

What You Will Do

Conduct legal research across federal and state jurisdictions

Draft and assist in preparing motions, pleadings, and litigation documents

Manage PACER filings and federal court docketing

Provide litigation support under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP)

Handle calendaring and deadline docketing with precision

Manage client communications professionally and confidentially

Perform billing and invoicing functions within CosmoLex

Maintain and organize case files within CosmoLex Practice Management Software

Required

Active paralegal certification (CP, CLA, ACP, or PACE equivalent)

Demonstrated, hands‑on experience in federal civil litigation

Proficiency with PACER and federal court e‑filing systems

Working knowledge of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure

Proficiency with CosmoLex practice management software

Strong legal research and writing skills

High degree of discretion, accuracy, and independent judgment

Arizona residency strongly preferred — candidate must be able to meet in person in the Phoenix area on an occasional, as‑needed basis

Preferred

Familiarity with IP and business law matters

Experience in a solo or small firm setting

WORK ARRANGEMENT This is a part‑time, remote position. Hours are flexible but must align with client deadlines and court schedules. Candidates must have a reliable home office setup and internet connection. We strongly prefer candidates who are based in Arizona, as occasional in-person meetings in the Phoenix area may be required.

HOW TO APPLY

Your resume, and

A cover letter that includes a professional biography detailing your paralegal experience, certifications, and specific experience with PACER, CosmoLex, federal litigation, and the FRCP

Applications without both a resume and a cover letter/bio will not be considered. Only short‑listed candidates will be contacted.

Equal Opportunity Statement Platz Juris, PLLC is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state, or local law.
