CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I am a trilingual Legal Administrative Assistant with over four years of experience supporting litigation teams in various legal fields, including employment, estate, immigration, labor, and human rights law. My expertise lies in drafting court documents, managing legal workflows, and conducting thorough legal research to ensure successful case outcomes. I take pride in my ability to contribute significantly to my team's success, having doubled a partner's litigation practice in the past year through efficient legal support and exceptional client service.
Currently, I assist two partners and two associates at Alexander Holburn Beaudin + Lang LLP, where I coordinate legal documents for trials, mediations, discoveries, and hearings. My role involves drafting and filing essential court materials, conducting legal research, and managing calendars and legal support teams. My previous experience at Harris & Company LLP allowed me to enhance the firm's cash flow by proactively managing accounts receivable collections, showcasing my ability to blend administrative efficiency with financial acumen.
Fluent in English, French, and Spanish, I possess strong technical proficiency in various legal software, including PCLaw, ALF, ACL, DivorceMate, and the Microsoft Office Suite. I am dedicated to continuous professional development, currently pursuing a Paralegal Litigation Certificate to further enhance my legal expertise.
