Litigation Assistant at Bush & Bush Law Group supporting Texas personal injury cases with pleadings and Stowers demand packages.

Colombia
Message

At Bush & Bush Law Group, I support attorneys and paralegals on personal injury and civil litigation matters, from pre-litigation through discovery, depositions, settlement, and trial preparation. I draft pleadings and assemble settlement demand packages, including Stowers demands.

I also prepare discovery requests and disclosures, organize medical and billing records, and manage e-filings, service of process, and deadlines through SmartAdvocate. I communicate with clients in English and Spanish and provide interpretation during attorney-client litigation calls.

In my independent legal practice in Colombia, I draft and review civil contracts, lease agreements, legal submissions, and administrative claims, and advise clients on civil and administrative matters. Earlier, I taught Civil, Commercial, and Contract Law at Corporación Universitaria del Caribe - CECAR / CORPOSUCRE.
