Nelson & Nelson, Attorneys at Law, P.C. | Belleville IL

We’re looking for someone who shows up, follows through, takes pride in doing things right, and acts with integrity. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.

Who We Are
We’re a small, established personal injury and workers’ compensation firm that’s been part of the community for over 40 years. We work hard, support each other, and take our responsibility to our clients seriously. The work matters here, and so does the team.

What This Role Looks Like Day-to-Day
This is a busy, structured role where your job is to help keep cases moving and details handled. You’ll be:

• Talking with clients, insurance companies, attorneys, and courts
• Managing and updating client information in our case management system to ensure accuracy, organization, and smooth case progress
• Ordering and organizing medical records and bills
• Drafting letters and emails
• Scheduling appointments, depositions, and hearings
• Tracking deadlines and making sure nothing slips through the cracks

If you like staying organized and being productive throughout the day, you’ll do well here.
What We Value (and Actually Look For)

• Prior office or administrative experience
• Experience working in a law firm or legal setting (strongly preferred; candidates without legal experience may still be considered if they demonstrate strong administrative skills and attention to detail)
• Reliability and consistency in showing up and following through
• Strong attention to detail
• Clear, professional written and verbal communication
• Accountability and ownership of your work
• A team-oriented mindset with a willingness to support others

What Helps You Stand Out

• Experience working in a fast-paced office environment
• Strong organizational habits and systems for keeping tasks, files, and deadlines on track
• Comfort using systems and learning new software
• Experience working with legal case management systems (such as Filevine or similar platforms)

What You Can Expect from Us

• A stable, long-term role
• Clear expectations and training
• A team that supports each other
• Work that makes a difference for people
