About TopDog Law

TopDog Law is a nationally scaling, fully-integrated, personal injury law firm built for impact, excellence, and growth. We own the client experience end-to-end, from marketing and intake through litigation, because we believe how we do the work matters just as much as what we achieve.

We are building a high-performance, high-trust, no-ego culture where talented people do meaningful work, grow quickly, and take pride in what they build together. This is not a legacy law firm. This is a rocket ship, and we’re assembling the team that will take it to the next level.

If you thrive in fast-moving environments, love taking ownership and being held accountable, and want to be part of something you can help shape, not just maintain, you’ll feel right at home here.

Our Story

TopDog Law is not your typical law firm. We believe that world-class marketing, paired with exceptional

legal talent and operations, creates better experiences and outcomes for clients and the business alike.

Over the past three years, we’ve grown 2–3x year over year, setting a new standard on the marketing

side of the personal injury space and proving what’s possible when strategy, speed, and execution align.

Now, we’re applying that same discipline and innovation to law firm operations, case management, and

execution as we scale nationally and fully integrate.

We are intentionally building the infrastructure, systems, and teams needed to scale at a national

level—without sacrificing quality, culture, or accountability. This is still the early stage of that journey,

which means the people who join now have a real opportunity to help shape how the firm operates for

years to come.
