Description du poste

We are looking for an experienced sales representative to conduct initial meetings with prospective new clients to help them understand the legal services available at our law firm. An ideal candidate will show compassion for the stress and anxiety all potential clients feel when going through divorce, custody, probate, and estate planning. Strong candidates are excellent, active listeners who can clearly hear what potential clients say to discern their needs and goals.

Once a client chooses to hire our firm, our Sales Associate continues supporting our new clients by providing attentive, excellent onboarding. They ensure engagement agreements are created and share firm procedures, expectations, and systems. They email all assigned team members at the start of the case. They follow up with clients at the end of their first week, and then a month into their matter, to ensure they have everything they need and provide additional resources that will help each client be successful.

Our Sales Associate will also remain in contact with potential clients who haven’t yet made decisions about representation so that they understand our door is open to them when they are ready to move forward. This team member also keeps detailed records about their consults to provide data-driven & constructive feedback to the owner and marketing department about the effectiveness of our marketing and branding strategies…even offering possible suggestions for improvement based on their direct experiences with clients.

Non-attorney support staff are prohibited from practicing law by the ABA’s Rules of Professional Conduct and Tennessee Bar Association rules. All client-focused work done by the Sales Associate must be in support of and under the supervision of an attorney. The Sales Associate simply explains services offered by the Firm and in no way provides legal advice.
