Erika Asatryan
@erikaasatryan
Litigation paralegal with strong legal research and e-filing expertise across civil and employment matters.
What I'm looking for
I’m a litigation-focused paralegal with significant experience supporting busy practices in personal injury, employment and labor law, and civil litigation. I bring exceptional organization and attention to detail, along with professional communication skills and strong discretion with confidential information.
In my current and recent roles, I set up and manage case files and internal case databases, communicate with opposing counsel, clients, and courts, and draft and file complaints and procedural documents through e-filing. I also handle service of process, court calendaring, and routine document review and drafting.
I’m comfortable conducting legal research to support attorney work and meeting deadlines with structured scheduling and timely reminders. I have supported drafting and preparation of demand letters and mediation briefs, and I facilitate smooth document organization for attorney case preparation.
Earlier in my career, I worked as a lawyer in Armenia, drafting and formulating agreements and assisting with regulatory documents and legal consultancy. I also completed a legal internship and legal expert experience involving contract drafting, legal research, and building an agency agreements database—strengthening my ability to work across jurisdictions and legal contexts.
