Legal Clerk/ Paralegal: PAN India Litigation Support

Law Clerk / Paralegal, Litigation Support

Clergy & Wisemen LLP | Delhi NCR (on-site) | Full-time

About us

Clergy & Wisemen is a full-service firm with a strong litigation, regulatory and dispute-management practice, built in 2021 and grown fast since. We appear before the High Courts, District Courts and statutory forums, and run matters pan-India. Our filing and registry operation is the backbone of that practice, and we are looking for a Law Clerk who can own it.

The role

You will work alongside our advocates and litigation teams and take charge of the procedural machinery that keeps matters moving:

• Filing matters before the High Courts, District Courts and Tribunals or forums, both physical and e-filing
• Preparing and managing filing sets, paper books, annexures, affidavits, vakalatnamas and court forms
• Coordinating with court clerks, registry officials, filing counters and local counsel across jurisdictions
• Tracking listings, defects, re-filings, diary numbers and orders, and clearing defects on time
• Maintaining case records, filing trackers and compliance checklists, largely in Excel
• Supporting advocates on indexing, formatting, pagination and compilation
• Keeping every matter inside its court rules, filing procedures and timelines

This is a procedural and operations-led seat, not a drafting or court-appearance role. If what you want is registry mastery and the machinery of litigation done right, this is the job.

What we are looking for

• Prior experience at a law firm or with a practising advocate is mandatory
• Working knowledge of High Court and District Court filing procedures, and comfort with both physical and e-filing
• Solid Excel: trackers, basic formulas, clean data management
• Well organised, detail-obsessed, and able to hold several matters in the air at once
• Fluent in litigation terminology and how courts actually function

Please note: this is a clerk / paralegal role focused on filings and case management, not an associate or trainee-advocate position. Candidates seeking a drafting-led or court-appearance role should apply to our Associate openings instead.

What we offer

• Exposure to high-value, pan-India litigation
• A structured, professional environment with clear processes
• Close working relationships with experienced advocates
• Long-term growth with a fast-growing firm, and a defined path as you take on more
