Our Story
TopDog Law is not your typical law firm. We're a nationally scaling personal injury firm built for impact and growth — owning the client experience end-to-end, from marketing and intake through litigation. We believe that world-class marketing, paired with exceptional legal talent and operations, creates better experiences and outcomes for clients and the business alike.
Over the past three years, we've grown 2–3x year over year, setting a new standard on the marketing side of the personal injury space and proving what's possible when strategy, speed, and execution align. Now we're applying that same discipline and innovation to firm operations, case management, and national scale — intentionally building the infrastructure, systems, and teams to grow without sacrificing quality, culture, or accountability.
We are a fully remote team that share trust, open communication, and a commitment to doing great work. If you love ownership, thrive in a fast-moving environment, and want to help build something exceptional, you'll feel right at home here.
The Opportunity
People come to TopDog Law at one of the hardest moments of their lives: injured, overwhelmed, and unsure of what comes next. They need someone in their corner who knows their name, understands their situation, and is actively fighting to get them the best possible outcome. The Case Manager exists to be that person, a dedicated advocate who owns the client relationship completely and ensures no one ever feels like just a file number. When this role is done right, clients feel heard, supported, and confident that someone is genuinely working for them.
What You Will Own
- Own the client relationship from day one through settlement, the Welcome Call is yours, the relationship is yours, and the outcome is yours
- Be the client's dedicated advocate, connecting them to the right care fast and walking them through one of the most stressful experiences of their life with confidence and compassion
- Drive cases forward with urgency, moving through each phase with precision and purpose
- Build demand packages that tell a compelling story and negotiate toward outcomes that make a real difference for real people
- Be the source of truth on every case you touch, leveraging cutting-edge technology to stay sharp, move fast, and never let anything slip
- This is not a hand-off role, it's full ownership, and for the right person, it's one of the most impactful seats in the firm
What You Bring
Required:
- 2–6 years of experience supporting Personal Injury pre-litigation matters on cases in Illinois
- Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail
- Ability to manage a high-volume caseload in a fast-paced environment
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Experience requesting, reviewing, and summarizing medical records and bills
- Ability to prioritize tasks, meet deadlines, and work independently while collaborating with a team
Preferred (Nice to Have):
- Bachelor's degree or Paralegal Certificate
- Experience in a high-volume or fast-growing law firm
- Familiarity with Personal Injury claims processes and insurance procedures
- Experience with case management software (e.g., Filevine, Clio, SmartAdvocate)
- Comfort working in evolving systems and processes
Who Thrives Here (Core Values)
We don't hire on resumes alone. We hire for competence, character, and mindset.
- Embrace Change: Open to feedback, embracing change, and always asking "what's next?"
- Committed: You care deeply, have your teammates' backs, and show up to build something lasting.
- No-Ego Energy: Positive, professional, and solutions-oriented. Drama stays at the door.
- Ownership: You do what you say, follow through, and treat the business like it's yours.
- Fast & Hungry: You move with urgency, thrive under high expectations, and are motivated by growth and impact.
What We Offer
- Base Salary: $66,000 - $82,000 commensurate with experience

Tips for Your Remote Pre-Litigation Paralegal Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote pre-litigation paralegal openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your practice area and apply directly. Remote postings at high-volume firms fill fast, so checking regularly gives you a real edge.
Show your async communication skills upfront
Remote pre-litigation work runs on written updates, not hallway conversations. Include writing samples in your application materials, such as a demand letter excerpt or a case status summary, to show remote employers you communicate clearly without back-and-forth.
List every case management platform you know
Remote pre-litigation employers decide quickly based on software fit. Name every platform you've used, including Filevine, MyCase, Clio, or any carrier-specific system, in your resume's skills section so you clear keyword filters and signal you can hit the ground running.
Prepare for a remote-simulation interview round
Many distributed pre-litigation teams test candidates with a practical task before a final offer, such as drafting a records request or summarizing a medical chronology. Practice these tasks in your home setup under realistic conditions so you can deliver clean work on a tight turnaround.
Remote Pre-Litigation Paralegal Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote pre-litigation paralegal job?
Target remote-first plaintiff firms, insurance defense shops, and third-party administrators that run distributed teams, since those employers are built to onboard and manage paralegals without an office. Remote pre-litigation employers screen hard for self-direction, precise written communication, and comfort with case management software. Candidates who can show they've managed deadlines and attorney requests independently, without in-person check-ins, stand out.
Which companies hire remote pre-litigation paralegals?
Companies hiring remote pre-litigation paralegals right now include TopDog Law, EvenUp, and Claggett and Sykes Law Firm, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. The employers doing most of the hiring are remote-first plaintiff firms, national insurance carriers, and legal process outsourcing companies that run distributed teams across personal injury, workers' compensation, and mass tort practice areas.
Can you get a remote pre-litigation paralegal job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level roles are harder to land because you're expected to work independently from day one without in-person supervision. Firms that hire entry-level candidates remotely tend to run structured intake or demand pipelines where tasks are clearly defined. Showing proficiency in case management software, strong written communication samples, and any internship or clinic experience with pre-litigation files opens the door.
Do you need a degree for remote pre-litigation paralegal jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers care more about demonstrated case-handling skills than a specific credential, especially for high-volume roles in personal injury or workers' compensation. A paralegal certificate, hands-on experience managing medical records and demand packages, and comfort with remote case management platforms often carry as much weight as a four-year degree for these positions.
Which industries hire the most remote pre-litigation paralegals?
Remote pre-litigation paralegal roles concentrate in Technology & Software, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Those sectors hire pre-litigation paralegals remotely because their caseloads are document-driven and process-heavy, making the work well-suited to distributed teams managing intake, records requests, and demand letters from anywhere.
