JOB OVERVIEW

# Experienced Legal Case Manager / Legal Assistant – U.S. Law Firm

Growing U.S. employment law firm is seeking an **experienced Legal Case Manager / Legal Assistant** for a long-term remote position.

**This is not an entry-level position. Prior legal case-management or substantive law-firm experience is required.**

We are looking for someone who already understands how to manage legal work, communicate professionally with clients, organize case files, track deadlines and outstanding items, follow up without repeated reminders, and keep matters moving.

The position will begin at approximately **10–20 hours per week**, but we have substantial work available. A strong performer who consistently completes accurate work, meets deadlines and demonstrates initiative may receive significantly more hours.

### Compensation

* **$2.50 USD/hour starting rate**
* Approximately **10–20 hours per week to start**
* Additional hours available based on performance and workload
* Potential for substantial part-time or full-time hours for an exceptional performer
* Compensation may be reviewed as the firm grows and responsibilities increase
* Strong performers may become eligible for discretionary performance bonuses
* Long-term opportunity

### What You Should Already Know How to Do

You should be comfortable independently handling many of the following:

* Client intake and follow-up
* Professional client telephone and email communication
* Organizing and maintaining legal case files
* Tracking deadlines, tasks and outstanding documents
* Maintaining a legal case-management system
* Preparing factual chronologies and timelines
* Reviewing and summarizing records
* Obtaining missing information and documents from clients
* Following up persistently and professionally
* Conducting legal and factual research
* Assisting with correspondence and legal documents
* Preparing files for attorney review
* Identifying missing information, inconsistencies and overdue tasks
* Managing multiple matters and competing priorities

Experience with **MyCase, Clio, Filevine, CasePeer, Lawmatics or similar legal case-management software** is strongly preferred.

Experience in **U.S. employment law, personal injury, workers' compensation, litigation, disability, immigration, or another client-intensive legal practice** is particularly valuable.

### What We Are Looking For

We need someone who can **take work off the attorney's plate rather than create additional work.**

You should be:

* Experienced in legal support or case management
* Highly organized
* Productive
* Proactive
* Reliable
* Detail-oriented
* Comfortable communicating with U.S. clients
* Able to work independently
* Able to recognize when something is missing or requires follow-up
* Comfortable managing multiple active matters

You will, of course, receive instructions about **our firm's cases, procedures and systems**, but we are **not looking to teach someone the fundamentals of legal case management.**

Availability during **U.S. Eastern Time business hours** is required.

### How to Apply

Start your message with: **CASE MANAGER**, attach a current resume, and briefly answer:

1. How long have you worked for law firms, and what types of cases did you handle?
2. What case-management responsibilities did you personally perform?
3. What legal case-management software have you used?
4. What U.S. Eastern Time hours can you work?
5. Are you currently working for other clients?
6. Would you like more than 20 hours/week if your work is strong and additional hours are offered?

**Please do not apply if you have no prior legal experience.**

Keep your answers brief. Strong candidates will be contacted for the next step.
