Description

We are hiring an experienced Pre-Litigation Paralegal to manage a personal injury caseload from intake through demand in our Tampa office.

This is a file-owning role, not a support position. You will be responsible for keeping cases moving, ensuring records are obtained, clients are consistently updated, and files are prepared for demand. If you are not currently managing files independently through the demand stage, this is not the right role.

About the Firm

The Matassini Law Firm, P.A. is a Tampa-based plaintiff personal injury and criminal defense firm with nearly 50 years of practice. Family-owned and referral-driven, the firm is known for its preparation, professionalism, and deep roots in the Tampa community. Nearly 95 percent of our clients come through referrals from former clients, physicians, and fellow attorneys — a reflection of the standard we hold ourselves to.

Key Responsibilities

Manage 30 to 50 pre-litigation PI files from intake through demand. Proactively order and track medical records and bills. Maintain consistent, professional client communication. Organize and prepare files for demand, including medical summaries. Identify missing information and drive files forward independently. Keep all files current and organized in Clio. Meet internal timelines and maintain momentum across your caseload.

Requirements

Requirements (Non-Negotiable)

5+ years of plaintiff personal injury paralegal experience. Experience independently managing a full pre-litigation caseload. Experience preparing files for demand — not just assisting. Strong understanding of medical records, billing, and case progression. Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple active files simultaneously. Proactive, detail-oriented, and accountable. Proficiency in Clio, Outlook, and Microsoft Word. Spanish fluency is a plus but not required.

Compensation and Benefits

Competitive compensation commensurate with experience. Quarterly bonus opportunities tied to case progress and performance. SIMPLE IRA with employer match. Generous PTO. Health stipend.

We are a high-accountability, performance-driven firm. We value people who take ownership of their work and hold themselves to a high standard.
