What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote role where I can support attorneys with litigation and corporate work—handling drafting, research, discovery organization, e-filing, and case management (Clio/MyCase)—so my team can move faster and stay organized.

I’m a detail-oriented Virtual Legal Assistant with 3 years of experience supporting attorneys across litigation and corporate law practice. I provide efficient, tech-savvy remote support that keeps matters moving with strong legal drafting, legal research, and organized workflows.

In my current role, I’ve drafted and refined 100+ legal documents, including pleadings, motions, and discovery requests, earning 90% approval rates from supervising attorneys. I conducted legal research for a class action employment lawsuit, identifying 3 precedent cases that became central to our successful litigation strategy, and supported intake interviews for 70+ clients with 91% retention.

I also improve operational execution through case management and document systems—using Clio and MyCase to enhance coordination and tracking. Previously, I helped transition a firm to a cloud-based document management workflow (OneDrive), reducing administrative time by 30%, maintained SOPs to cut day-to-day bottlenecks by 40%, and managed calendars for 3 senior partners with a 98% on-time rate.
