This role demands a sharp, organized, proactive professional who can manage up, anticipate needs, and keep the department moving forward without waiting for instructions. If you're the “just tell me once” type who thrives in chaos and brings order with confidence, you'll excel here.
What you'll do:
Draft and prepare ordinances, resolutions, amendments, memos, contracts, pleadings, discovery, PowerPoints, and city agenda materials for attorney review
Manage 100-120+ active matters (“transactions”), including advice and counsel, advisory memos, departmental requests, special projects, contract reviews, and legislation

Schedule calls, meetings, hearings, city sessions, and project touchpoints
Manage up: flag deadlines, push attorneys to stay ahead, and keep work flowing
Coordinate deliverables across multiple attorneys and their support staff
Delegate tasks to of-counsel attorneys when needed to keep the pace
Support contract drafting, transactional work, litigation case management, and city project management
Prepare materials for city council meetings, special-called meetings, election-related matters, special trainings, and other municipal needs
Ensure zero missed deadlines and consistently deliver high-quality first drafts
What we're looking for:
2-5+ years of paralegal experience, ideally with strong litigation exposure
Ability to manage 100+ active matters without losing accuracy or momentum
Unshaken under pressure and comfortable communicating clearly with driven attorneys.
Strong emotional intelligence and excellent self-management
Zero ego. You'll draft, schedule, coordinate, research, and chase tasks - whatever keeps the department moving
Fast learner with strong common sense, able to interpret unclear requests and act decisively
Experience supporting multiple attorneys simultaneously
Government or municipal experience is helpful but not required
Proven ability to manage up and hold attorneys accountable to deadlines
High ownership mindset, no hand-holding, and a genuine love for solving problems fast
Superior organization and follow-through, even on chaotic days
Ability to work 100% on-site in Lithia Springs (required)
Why you should work here:
High-impact role: You become the central force that keeps the city's legal operations moving smoothly
Growth and mastery: You'll develop deep expertise in contracts, legislation, litigation, and city governance
Elite culture: Work with high-IQ, high-initiative professionals who expect excellence from themselves and each other
Direct mentorship: Daily collaboration with three attorneys, including the City Attorney
Clear expectations: No ambiguity, no emotional waste, no drama - just high standards and high performance
If you thrive under pressure, love being the person who “gets it done,” and want to work somewhere that matches your drive, this is your role. You won't be micromanaged, and you won't be babysat - but your work will directly influence the success of the City of Fairburn's legal operations.
