Description
About the role


A well-established personal injury firm operating on a 100% contingency model is seeking an experienced financial leader to step in on a fractional basis and build the financial infrastructure the firm needs to scale. Revenue is settlement-driven — lumpy, non-recurring — which means this role requires someone who genuinely understands cash flow in a project-based or contingency environment.




What you'll own (first 90 days)

+ IOLTA / trust account reconciliation — get the accounts clean and keep them that way. Trust accounting experience is a must.

+ Cash flow forecast — build a realistic 3–6 month model that reflects how contingency revenue actually works: settlement timing, pipeline, and case mix.

+ Budget from scratch — the firm has no formal budget. You'll build the first one.

+ Line of credit paydown plan — develop a clear, actionable plan to reduce existing debt obligations....
