            <description><![CDATA[<strong>Legal Intake & Sales Specialist â Criminal Defense</strong><br>
<br>
Location: Fort Worth, Texas<br>
Schedule: Full-time, in office Monday through Friday:&nbsp;8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. <br>
Must also be willing to respond to prospective-client calls after hours when needed.











<br>
Salary: $60,000 plus performance-based commission<br>
<br>
<strong>About the Opportunity</strong><br>
<br>
A growing boutique criminal defense firm in Fort Worth is seeking a driven, phone-first sales professional to convert prospective-client inquiries into signed cases.<br>
<br>
This is not a traditional administrative intake position. You will speak with warm leads who have already contacted the firm for help with a criminal matter. <br>
Your job is to evaluate their needs, determine whether the matter is a potential fit, communicate the value of the firmâs services, overcome objections, and guide qualified prospects toward retaining the firm.<br>
<br>
The ideal candidate approaches the position like an Account Executive: competitive, numbers-driven, persistent, and motivated by the opportunity to increase earnings through individual performance. <br>
Criminal defense experience is helpful, but natural sales ability, coachability, and a proven ability to close are most important.<br>
<br>
<strong>Responsibilities</strong><br>
Handle inbound calls and inquiries from prospective criminal defense clients<br>
Build trust quickly with individuals who may be experiencing stressful or urgent circumstances<br>
Ask thoughtful questions to understand each prospective clientâs situation and needs<br>
Evaluate and qualify leads based on the firmâs case criteria<br>
Clearly explain the firmâs services, value, and next steps<br>
Address questions and objections confidently and professionally<br>
Convert qualified prospective clients into signed clients<br>
Consistently follow up with leads who do not retain the firm during the initial conversation<br>
Manage prospects through the entire sales pipeline, from first contact through signed agreement<br>
Maintain detailed and accurate lead, follow-up, and conversion information in the CRM<br>
Track individual activity, conversion rates, signed cases, and other performance metrics<br>
Collaborate with attorneys and legal staff to ensure a smooth handoff after a client retains the firm<br>
Identify opportunities to improve scripts, follow-up strategies, workflows, and conversion results<br>
Remain available to respond to occasional prospective-client calls outside regular business hours<br>
<br>
<strong>Qualifications</strong><br>
At least one year of consultative or phone-based sales experience<br>
Proven history of meeting or exceeding sales goals or quotas<br>
Strong closing, objection-handling, and follow-up skills<br>
Comfortable spending a substantial portion of the workday speaking with prospective clients by phone<br>
Competitive, goal-oriented, and motivated by performance-based earnings<br>
High emotional intelligence and the ability to balance empathy with a direct, results-focused approach<br>
Able to establish credibility and trust quickly<br>
Persistent without being overly aggressive<br>
Coachable, adaptable, and willing to refine your sales approach<br>
Organized and able to manage multiple leads and follow-up deadlines<br>
Comfortable being measured against conversion and revenue goals<br>
Able to maintain confidentiality and exercise sound professional judgment<br>
Comfortable regularly hearing sensitive, graphic, or potentially upsetting details related to criminal matters<br>
Willing to respond to prospective-client calls outside regular business hours when needed<br>
Able to commute to the Fort Worth office five days per week<br>
<br>
<strong>Preferred Background</strong><br>
Criminal defense intake or sales<br>
Plaintiff personal injury intake<br>
Law-firm intake involving lead conversion and client retention<br>
Insurance, healthcare, financial services, staffing, SaaS, or another professional-services sales environment<br>
CRM or legal intake software<br>
Business development or marketing<br>
What Success Looks Like<br>
<br>
Success in this position means more than answering calls and collecting information. <br>
The right person will take ownership of each lead, follow up consistently, understand what motivates prospective clients, and confidently guide qualified individuals toward a decision.<br>
<br>
This opportunity is best suited for someone who is:<br>
<br>
Energized by phone conversations<br>
Hungry, coachable, and competitive<br>
Motivated by numbers and measurable results<br>
Persistent with follow-up<br>
Comfortable working with urgency<br>
Excited by uncapped commission potential<br>
Interested in meaningful sales work that directly helps people obtain legal representation<br>
Compensation and Benefits<br>
$60,000 base salary<br>
performance-based commission tied to successfully signed cases<br>
<br>
401(k) matching<br>
Health insurance<br>
Paid sick time<br>
Paid time off<br>
<br>
<br>
This is a full-time, in-office position in Fort Worth. Regular office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. <br>
Because prospective clients may need immediate assistance, occasional responsiveness outside standard business hours is expected.<br>
<br>
<br>
