This role is for a mortgage-servicing litigation paralegal who can run point on file management, discovery coordination, subpoenas, and outside counsel communication. It’s detail-heavy, deadline-driven, and very “keep the train on the tracks” for contested/default proceedings. Carrington also flags it as a government-contractor role, so the experience and education requirements are not optional.
