About Shook & Stone


Shook & Stone is one of Nevada's premier injury law firms, representing clients in Workers' Compensation, Personal Injury, and Social Security Disability matters.

Position Summary


The Legal Intake Specialist is the firm's first point of contact with prospective personal injury and workers' compensation clients, guiding them from initial inquiry through signed representation. The role blends sales instincts with empathy: assessing claims, responding to emotional callers with care, gathering complete information, and converting leads into clients. Weekend availability is required; a hybrid schedule may be available for weekend days worked (three weekdays in the office, two weekend days from home).

• Run a structured, multi-touch follow-up cadence (call, text, email) through to a signed agreement or a documented disqualification
• Send, track, and close out e-signature fee agreements

Data Collection & Reporting

• Gather complete client information through structured intake forms and interviews, and enter it accurately into the firm's CRM/case management system (SmartAdvocate)
