How to Apply

Submit your resume and a short cover letter explaining why you’re a strong fit and how your experience aligns with this role.

This is a hands‑on role for a professional who takes ownership of their files, provides exceptional client service, and thrives in a collaborative team environment.

• Handle personal injury claims from intake through settlement or litigation
• Move cases forward proactively to ensure timely and effective resolution
• Maintain complete and organized case files (digital and hard copy)

• Build strong client relationships through consistent, compassionate communication
• Provide timely case updates and respond promptly to client inquiries
• Deliver outstanding client service during what is often a stressful time

• Collect and organize medical records, bills, police reports, and supporting documentation
• Communicate regularly with insurance adjusters, medical providers, and legal professionals
• Ensure all documentation is accurate, complete, and properly maintained in the case management system, Dropbox, and physical files

• Work closely with a single reporting attorney, ensuring clear direction and focused priorities
• Assist with case preparation, documentation, scheduling, and litigation support as needed
• Maintain strict compliance with confidentiality requirements, firm policies, and legal standards

This role is ideal for a proactive, organized professional who enjoys managing their own caseload while being part of a supportive, mission-driven team.

We’re searching for someone who brings both skill and heart to their work.

• You have at least 2 years of experience in personal injury law and feel confident managing the moving parts of a case.
• You’re comfortable using Google Suite and Microsoft Office in your daily workflow. (Experience with Case Peer is a plus, but we’re happy to train the right person.)
• You’re naturally organized, detail‑oriented, and take pride in keeping files accurate and on track.
• You communicate clearly and professionally — whether you’re speaking with a client, drafting correspondence, or coordinating with providers and insurance adjusters.
• You genuinely care about client service and bring emotional intelligence to your interactions, especially with clients who may be navigating difficult circumstances.
• You manage deadlines well, prioritize effectively, and can move cases forward with confidence and independence.
• You have reliable transportation and maintain auto insurance.

If you’re someone who values professionalism, compassion, and teamwork — and you want to be part of a firm where your experience and judgment are trusted — we’d love to connect with you.
