Job Description

We are looking for an experienced Law Firm Paralegal to join a well-established legal practice in Princeton, New Jersey, supporting a fast-paced creditors’ rights and residential foreclosure team. This direct-permanent opportunity is ideal for someone with solid New Jersey foreclosure knowledge who can independently prepare legal filings, examine title materials, and keep matters progressing with accuracy. The role calls for someone who is highly organized and comfortable handling a substantial caseload while collaborating with attorneys, clients, vendors, and court personnel.

Job Responsibility

  • Prepare and submit residential foreclosure pleadings for New Jersey matters, including drafting complaints from case-specific information rather than relying solely on standard forms
  • Assist attorneys with contested foreclosure cases by monitoring progress, organizing supporting materials, and helping move files through litigation stages
  • Examine title reports and related records to determine ownership, lien positions, and other issues that may affect foreclosure actions
  • Coordinate the correction and resolution of title defects by communicating with appropriate parties and following through on outstanding items
  • Maintain organized case calendars, docket entries, and status updates to ensure deadlines and filings are handled accurately across a high-volume workload
  • Oversee foreclosure files in line with lender and mortgage servicer expectations, including document tracking and adherence to matter-specific requirements
  • Collaborate regularly with attorneys, legal support staff, clients, service providers, and court contacts to keep cases moving efficiently
  • Use case management tools, court filing platforms, and servicer portals to record activity, monitor deadlines, and manage documentation
  • Support filing preparation, records organization, and service-level compliance for matters handled across multiple office locations

Requirements

  • At least 3 years of focused paralegal experience handling New Jersey foreclosure matters within a law firm environment
  • Working knowledge of New Jersey foreclosure procedures, litigation timelines, and court filing practices
  • Demonstrated ability to draft original foreclosure complaints and related legal documents with minimal supervision
  • Experience supporting disputed or defended foreclosure cases is strongly preferred
  • Strong ability to review title documentation, recognize defects or exceptions, and assist with corrective action
  • Familiarity with electronic filing systems, deadline management, and high-volume case tracking in foreclosure matters
  • Exposure to mortgage servicer or legal workflow platforms such as Black Knight, Tempo, or comparable systems is preferred
  • Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work effectively with attorneys, internal teams, and lender or servicer clients.

Nice to have

  • Experience supporting disputed or defended foreclosure cases
  • Exposure to mortgage servicer or legal workflow platforms such as Black Knight, Tempo, or comparable systems
