What I'm looking for

I seek a paralegal or legal assistant role where I can apply my document preparation, research, and client-management skills in a supportive, process-driven team.

I am a dedicated legal assistant and paralegal with extensive experience supporting attorneys, managing case files, and handling client queries. I have worked across law firms and legal service providers, preparing legal documents, conducting research, and ensuring compliance with legal standards and deadlines.

My background includes filing, drafting bills of costs, serving documents, coordinating client communication, and streamlining document access to support efficient case work. I have also run a small tutoring business, demonstrating strong organizational, multitasking, and client-service skills.

I bring a detail-oriented approach, practical knowledge of legal terminology and documentation, and a commitment to timely, professional support that improves team productivity and client satisfaction.
