Compensation:

$43,000 - $52,000 yearly

Responsibilities:

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.

Manage Cases from Start to Finish

• 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)

Serve as the Primary Client Liaison

• 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

Coordinate Key Documentation and Communications

• 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

Support the Attorney

• 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.

Qualifications:

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 CasePeer 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.

About Company

At Emery Law, we represent people during some of the hardest moments of their lives. They aren’t just cases; they are individuals and families who need a strong voice, clear guidance, and a legal team that genuinely cares about what they’re going through.

That’s why we do things differently.

Our firm is led by a woman who built this practice on the belief that excellent legal work and a healthy, supportive workplace are not mutually exclusive. We value empathy as much as expertise, collaboration over ego, and sustainable careers over burnout. We believe the best advocates for clients are lawyers who are supported by a team that respects their time, their families, and their humanity.

Benefits

• Health insurance
• SIMPLE IRA retirement plan with company match (vests immediately)
• Two weeks PTO plus paid holidays
• Unlimited unpaid time off (as long as KPIs are met)
• Weekly pay, performance bonus payable monthly
