JWL International is a modern, business-driven law firm serving clients on five continents — including global leaders like Hitachi and Hyundai, as well as hundreds of manufacturers, dealers, and service providers worldwide. Founded by James Waite, author of the American Rental Association's Guide to Rental Contracts, JWL blends sophisticated legal counsel with strategic business insight.
We're looking for a Dallas/Fort Worth-based Paralegal / Office Operations Administrator to support our attorneys and help manage day-to-day firm operations. This is a dynamic, hands-on role ideal for someone who thrives on variety, works independently, and wants direct involvement with partners and clients across a range of commercial and litigation matters.
Key Responsibilities
  • Assist attorneys with drafting, reviewing, and organizing legal documents, contracts, and litigation filings.
  • Support litigation workflows including discovery management, document review, deposition preparation, and case file organization.
  • Prepare and coordinate closing packages for commercial transactions.
  • Manage filings, correspondence, and case records with precision and confidentiality.
  • Support operational needs — scheduling, billing coordination, HR onboarding, and vendor communication.
  • Help streamline workflows, maintain databases, and coordinate with remote team members.
  • Serve as a point of contact for clients, ensuring professional, timely communication.
What We're Looking For
  • 3+ years of paralegal, legal assistant, or office administration experience (law firm experience strongly preferred).
  • Experience supporting litigation attorneys — familiarity with discovery, pleadings, court filings, and case management is a strong plus.
  • Comfortable working across both transactional and litigation matters.
  • Excellent organizational, communication, and multitasking skills.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and legal practice management tools.
  • High degree of initiative — able to anticipate needs, solve problems, and take ownership.
  • A positive, professional demeanor that reflects JWL's results-focused culture.
Why JWL
  • Entrepreneurial, outcome-driven environment — no bureaucracy, no billable-hour grind.
  • Direct access to leadership and meaningful input into firm operations.
  • Competitive pay and growth potential as the Texas presence expands.
All inquiries are handled with complete confidentiality.
Equal Opportunity Employer JWL International is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive environment. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, age, or veteran status.
