I want to say paralegal but my firm doesn't have a case manager. What exactly does that job do? I can't imagine it is harder or more difficult than what we handle as paralegals so I think my vote is still for the paralegals.

Paralegal.

Good paralegal

Depends what the duties are but ordinarily the answer is paralegal as long as both are good members of the team.

Paralegal

Paralegal

For PI obviously a trial paralegal.

The senior case manager finalizes the case with the client tho and assists with the process of the check.

In terms of utility, it’s like a fresh litigation attorney versus a staff attorney.

In this business, seniority is one thing but classifying the other.

Pay is directly proportional to a hollistic view of the candidate

I wonder why then case managers get more pay and privileges than paralegals at some firms?? Very interesting to see.

Depends on seniority. But typically Para is higher grade, and more education.

I currently work at a small PI firm in Atlanta were EVERYTHING is settled presuit. If we’re unable to settle, then it’s referred to another firm for litigation.
