 UpRight Law is on a mission to connect consumers with attorneys through the use of cutting-edge technology. Our team members provide clients with access to justice so that they can get on the path to a debt-free future. We consistently achieve 100% year-over-year growth and were recently named one of Chicago’s top digital companies for the second year in a row.

Description:

UpRight Law is a national law firm seeking a licensed attorney to join our expanding Client RElationship Management team.  We are looking for attorneys who are passionate about helping others achieve access to a fresh start and aiding in UpRight Law’s rapid growth as we reinvent how consumers access high-quality legal services.

As their primary point of contact through much of the representation, you will directly engage with clients, guiding them through the bankruptcy process from day one through the point of their case being filed, and beyond. This includes reviewing retainer agreements with clients, drafting portions of the bankruptcy petition, and successfully working with clients on budgeting and making timely payments on attorney fees to ensure timely filing of the cases.  The ideal candidate will have a background in account management, experience working with clients directly, a commitment to providing exceptional client service, and an eye for detail. Preference is given to bilingual attorneys.

What you’ll do:

  • Act as the primary point of contact during and outside of regular business hours for your clients
  • Ensure your assigned clients make all scheduled payments, and accelerate payment plans when possible to get clients across the finish line promptly
  • Educate potential clients on the available resources to help solve their financial problems
  • Use your legal background to help our clients get a fresh start financially
  • Build connections with clients and explain the value of UpRight Law’s services

Who you are:

  • A licensed attorney with a background in account management
  • Competitive and goal oriented - you are never satisfied and always strive to be better
  • Passionate about helping others - you were put on this earth to make an impact and leave it better than you found it
  • Flexible and adaptive to change - you thrive in a fast-paced environment and get bored with the status-quo
  • Energetic and fun to work with - you take your work seriously, but don't take yourself too seriously

What you’ll enjoy:

  • Competitive base pay plus generous incentives
  • Opportunity to work for a fast-growing company that is disrupting an industry and changes lives every day
  • Positive, fun and energetic work atmosphere that fosters collaboration
  • Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision and student loan repayment
  • Kitchen stocked with snacks and beverages
