The Opportunity:

We are looking for a Client Intake Coordinator to join our litigation team. Candidates should have at least one to two years of experience working in a professional setting in a client-facing role. This is a full-time (M-F, 8:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m.) position in Roseville, California. The Client Intake Coordinator is most often the first person in our Firm a potential new client (PNC) has contact with. We view this role as being critical to our success. When a PNC calls in to our Firm, they are often in a moment of uncertainty and crisis. The Client Intake Coordinator sets the stage for the PNC’s experience with us.

As the Client Intake Coordinator, you will be responsible for answering live calls from PNCs and guiding them through the intake process. This involves gathering basic information about them and the type of claim(s) (e.g., wage and hour, sexual harassment, wrongful termination, etc.) they are calling about. It will be important for you to be able to build rapport with PNCs and engage in active listening. You will also be responsible for managing the intake pipeline in the Firm’s CRM platform and reviewing forms submitted by PNCs via the Firm’s website.

You will meet regularly with the Firm’s Managing Attorney to brief him on your intake calls for the day.During these meetings he will decide which matters the Firm is able to accept and those we will unfortunately need to decline. As the Client Intake Coordinator you will then follow up with all new clients to review and explain their fee agreements. For those we are unable accept, you will let them know and provide them with a resource. We strive to provide all PNCs with exceptional customer service, regardless of whether or not we take on their case.

As part of your role in working with new clients, you will set expectations for them (both in terms of what they can expect from us and what we need from them) and work with them through the onboarding process to request, collect, and organize documents and information.

About Us:

We are a small (but growing) team of people with a passion for helping others and making a difference. We believe the workplace should be a safe and healthy environment for employees. When it’s not, we’re there to hold employers accountable. Our team works hard for our clients and we celebrate our wins. We’re a mission-driven group and genuinely enjoy working with each other.
