Legal Case Manager (Remote - Philippines)

About Notmod

Modern talent. Lasting connections. Notmod (Not Modern) builds elite remote teams for U.S. law firms, and we engage seasoned legal professionals only: people with deep U.S. law firm experience, fluent English, and a real commitment to a long-term career in the U.S. legal industry. We use modern tools, but we work the old-fashioned way: fair pay, honest communication, long-term relationships, and real human connection.

Every Nodder starts with two weeks of paid training, at a training rate, at a California law firm, working with U.S. attorneys and staff in a real practice. After training, Nodders are placed long term with U.S. firms that are Notmod clients. You will work directly with U.S. attorneys and staff on live client matters, on U.S. business hours, from your own professional home office.
