A bit about us:

We are an established, highly respected plaintiff-side litigation firm in Houston, Texas, representing individuals in personal injury and complex litigation matters. Our practice is built around strong client advocacy, thorough case preparation, and a commitment to achieving meaningful results for the people we represent.

We are continuing to grow and are looking to add two experienced Personal Injury Case Managers / Paralegals to support our attorneys and expanding caseloads.

Our team handles cases that require attention to detail, consistent client communication, and a strong understanding of both pre-litigation and litigation procedures. We are looking for individuals who enjoy taking ownership of their work, understand how personal injury cases progress, and can anticipate what needs to happen next.

This is an opportunity to join an established practice where your experience, organization, and ability to keep cases moving will make an immediate impact.

This is not a position for someone who wants to simply process paperwork. We need someone who understands how a plaintiff personal injury case moves, knows the medical treatment process, and can keep clients and cases moving toward resolution.

Why join us?

Established, respected practice: Join a successful plaintiff-side firm handling meaningful personal injury and complex litigation matters.

Direct attorney exposure: Work closely with experienced attorneys and become an integral part of their daily operations.

Ownership and autonomy: Take responsibility for your cases and manage important aspects of the legal process without unnecessary layers of oversight.

Variety in your work: Stay involved in both pre-litigation and litigation rather than being limited to one narrow function.

Continued growth: Join an expanding practice that is investing in additional support for its attorneys and clients.

Meaningful client relationships: Help injured individuals navigate the legal process while ensuring their cases receive the attention they deserve.

Competitive compensation: Earn $80,000–$90,000 based on experience.

Job Details

We are seeking two experienced Personal Injury Case Managers / Paralegals who understand the full lifecycle of a plaintiff personal injury case, from initial client coordination and medical treatment through demand preparation and litigation.

These positions involve significant client interaction, medical coordination, insurance communication, and hands-on litigation support.

The ideal candidates will have experience working in a plaintiff personal injury law firm, be comfortable supporting busy attorneys, and know how to independently manage files, deadlines, and competing priorities.

Pre-Litigation & Case Management Responsibilities:

• Manage personal injury matters throughout the pre-litigation process.
• Serve as a primary point of contact for clients, providing updates and gathering necessary information.
• Monitor clients' medical treatment and follow up to ensure they remain engaged in their care.
• Communicate with medical providers regarding treatment, documentation, and outstanding information.
• Request, obtain, and organize medical records and medical bills.
• Maintain accurate, organized client files and track outstanding documentation.
• Communicate with insurance companies and claims adjusters.
• Assist with insurance claims and settlement-related documentation.
• Prepare and coordinate demand letters and demand packages.
• Work closely with attorneys to ensure cases progress efficiently and important follow-ups are completed.

Litigation Responsibilities:

• Support attorneys with personal injury matters that have moved into litigation.
• Electronically file pleadings, motions, and other court documents.
• Calendar, monitor, and track court deadlines.
• Maintain accurate litigation calendars and ensure deadlines are communicated and addressed.
• Assist with preparing and organizing litigation documents.
• Monitor case activity and maintain organized litigation files.
• Coordinate with attorneys regarding outstanding filings, documentation, and upcoming deadlines.
• Help ensure a smooth transition when cases move from pre-litigation into active litigation.

What We're Looking For:

• Previous experience working in a plaintiff-side personal injury law firm.
• Hands-on experience managing personal injury cases during the pre-litigation stage.
• Strong understanding of medical treatment coordination, medical records, and medical billing as they relate to personal injury claims.
• Experience preparing demand letters and/or demand packages.
• Experience communicating with insurance companies and adjusters.
• Hands-on electronic court filing experience is required.
• Experience calendaring and managing litigation deadlines is required.
• Familiarity with personal injury litigation procedures and court documentation.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple active cases.
• Excellent client communication skills and the ability to work with individuals navigating difficult circumstances.
• Ability to work independently, anticipate attorney needs, and consistently follow through on responsibilities.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced legal environment with multiple competing priorities.

Additional Experience That Would Be Helpful:

• Experience supporting multiple attorneys.
• Familiarity with Texas state court filing procedures.
• Experience with discovery, pleadings, subpoenas, or deposition coordination.
• Experience managing personal injury cases from intake through litigation.
• Background in complex personal injury or other plaintiff-side litigation matters.

Compensation & Location:

• Salary: $80,000–$90,000, depending on experience.
• Location: Houston, Texas.
• Schedule: Full-time, in-office.
• Work arrangement: 100% onsite.
• Introductory period: 90-day probationary period.

Who Will Thrive Here:

• Someone who enjoys being busy, takes pride in staying organized, and understands that successful case management requires anticipating needs rather than waiting for instructions.
• You know when a client needs follow-up, when medical records are outstanding, when a demand needs to be prepared, and when a court deadline is approaching.
• You're comfortable communicating with clients, attorneys, medical providers, and insurance adjusters, and you understand how important your role is in keeping cases moving.
• If you have a strong background in plaintiff personal injury, enjoy managing cases from pre-litigation into litigation, and want to work with an established team that values experience and accountability, we'd welcome the opportunity to speak with you.
