Job Title: Pre-Suit Paralegal (Justice Advocate)

Firm: The Dennis Law Firm

Mission: To Impact 100 million lives for the good using the law as our beacon.

Vision: Eradicating injustice across America one case at a time.

The 5 Creeds of Justice

• Compassion: We see the person, not just the file.
• Excellence: We settle for nothing less than the best work product.
• Accountability: We own our actions and our results.
• Relentless: We do not stop until justice is served.
• Professionalism: We lead with integrity and poise.

Position Summary

The Dennis Law Firm is seeking a Relentless Pre-Suit Paralegal who understands that the foundation of every major settlement is built in the early stages of a case. You are the primary navigator for our clients during their recovery. You will be responsible for managing a high-volume caseload from intake through the demand phase. This role requires a warrior's heart for Compassion and an auditor's eye for Excellence.

If you view the law as a tool to eradicate injustice and are looking for a firm where your "grind" has a global purpose, you belong here.

Essential Duties & Responsibilities

Your role is critical to our mission of impacting 100 million lives:

• Radical Client Advocacy (Compassion):Be the steady hand for clients navigating medical treatment. You will conduct regular "check-ins" to ensure they are getting the care they need and that their story is being documented accurately.
• Case Development (Relentless):Investigation is not a passive task. You will hunt down police reports, witness statements, and video footage. You will not take "no" for an answer from insurance adjusters or medical providers.
• Medical Management (Excellence): Track medical treatment with surgical precision. You are responsible for requesting, receiving, and summarizing medical records and bills, ensuring every penny of a client's damages is accounted for.
• The Demand Package (Professionalism):Prepare comprehensive demand shells that tell a compelling human story. You will ensure that all liens (Medicare, Medicaid, ERISA) are identified and addressed early to protect the client's net recovery.
• Ownership of the Desk (Accountability):Manage a heavy caseload without letting files "sit." You will maintain an impeccable calendar, ensuring no Statute of Limitations or internal deadline is ever at risk.
• Insurance Coordination: Confirm all applicable insurance coverages (Liability, UM/UIM, MedPay) and handle initial property damage claims where necessary.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Experience: 2+ years of Pre-Suit Personal Injury experience is preferred. We need someone who can hit the ground running.
• Heavy Caseload Experience: Proven ability to manage 75–100+ active files without compromising on the 5 Creeds.
• Communication: Exceptional "bedside manner" for clients combined with a firm, professional "negotiator" tone for adjusters.
• Technical Skills: Mastery of Case Management Software (e.g., Filevine,) Slack, and Microsoft Office.
• Critical Thinking: The ability to spot "the missing piece" of evidence that turns a $10k case into a $100k case.
• Language: Bilingual (English/Spanish) is a significant plus but not required.

Why The Dennis Law Firm?

We don't just settle cases; we change lives. You will be supported by a team that values your growth and celebrates your wins. We offer a fast-paced, high-energy environment where Accountability is rewarded, and Excellence is the baseline.
