3 Things a PI Paralegal Does to be Indispensable
In a personal injury firm, the money doesn't come in until a case settles. So who decides how fast that happens? More often than anyone realizes, it's the paralegal. In this episode of The Paralegal Coach, Ann Pearson shares what she learned working inside personal injury firms that hired Paralegal Boot Camp to clear backlogs of stuck cases, and why it completely changed how she sees the PI paralegal role. Then she walks through the three places personal injury files get stuck most often and what rockstar paralegals do differently at each one. In this episode, you'll hear: • Why a contingency fee firm earns zero on a file until it crosses the finish line, and who actually moves it there • How to stop waiting on medical records and start managing them • The "file that isn't on fire," and the three data points that reveal which files are ready for a demand today • Why a thin demand package can push a case into litigation, and what a settlement-ready package includes • The one question to ask on every file, every day Share your biggest bottleneck: Ann asks listeners to share the biggest bottleneck in their caseload right now.
