Hearing Representative, Settlements and OSA Workers' Compensation (Hybrid)

Prepare and appear: Complete hearing preparation for the upcoming week and appear virtually at all settlement hearings — status conferences, mandatory settlement conferences, lien conferences, and OSA hearings.

Keep files current: Update each case file before and after every hearing so the record reflects what happened and what comes next.

Keep clients updated: Reach out to clients before and after hearings, and send required client communications on schedule.

Resolve OSAs completely: Take Orders Suspending Action from receipt to resolution — compile the file, cure signature/service/lien and adequacy defects, draft the necessary letters and declarations, and follow through until the matter is cleared.

Negotiate split fees: Handle fee negotiations on cases subbed out to or referred from other firms.

Communicate internally: Coordinate with attorneys and settlement staff, escalate approvals when needed, and keep everyone aligned on matter status.

Meet weekly metrics: Consistently hit weekly hearing-prep, OSA-queue, and client-communication targets.
