About the role

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
