• Observe and monitor medical treatment plans and updated case notes based on contact with providers and clients.
• Draft high‑value policy‑limit demands with medical chronologies, associated records, and visual aids based on firm protocols.
• Learn to negotiate directly with insurance adjusters to secure top‑dollar settlements or force litigation when offers are inadequate.
• Transition files to the litigation team with comprehensive turnover memos and trial‑ready packets.
• Supervise and delegate daily tasks to assigned support staff.

Qualifications

• Ability to learn effective negotiation skills.
• Solid writing ability for demand packages.
• Empathy and bilingual (Spanish/English) fluency to connect instantly with South Texas clients.
• Extreme organization to juggle active files without dropping deadlines.
• Proficiency with Salesforce, Litify, or similar PI case‑management software.
• Alignment with firm values: respect, selflessness, empathy, integrity, humility, and excellence.
