Microsoft’s Litigation Team, within Microsoft Corporate, External and Legal Affairs (CELA) in Redmond, Washington, is looking for a Litigation Paralegal with a passion for technology, innovation, and modern legal operations who would enjoy working on diverse and challenging investigations and cases, primarily related to antitrust law, that span across Microsoft’s product groups and businesses. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a complex and dynamic environment and is excited to help evolve our practice by adopting, implementing, and improving emerging tools, including those leveraging artificial intelligence, to streamline workflows and strengthen litigation outcomes.
As a Litigation Paralegal you will handle large and complex antitrust regulatory investigations and commercial litigation matters, from HSR filing, compulsory investigative demand (CID), or service of process through trial. You will be responsible for conducting factual investigations, managing all phases of discovery, and working directly with clients, in-house and outside counsel, vendors, regulators, and opposing counsel. You will partner with the Competition and Market Regulation Group to support their discovery needs on antitrust regulatory investigations, including mergers, drawing on the sophisticated e-discovery capabilities of the Litigation Team. A successful candidate should have a strong background in diverse civil litigation subject areas (e.g., regulatory, commercial, employment, patent, etc.) and a solid understanding of modern discovery and trial procedures. In addition to core litigation support responsibilities, the ideal candidate will proactively identify opportunities to enhance our team’s processes through technology solutions, pilot new tools, and partner with attorneys and engineering teams to continually improve our discovery and case management operations.
Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
