Experienced office manager and legal assistant specializing in family law case support.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Office Manager and Legal Assistant with 15+ years in legal administration, real estate operations, and client relations. In my current role, I draft and prepare legal documents for matrimonial and family court proceedings, coordinate service for subpoenas and deposition notices, and keep matters on track by monitoring dockets, deadlines, and case decisions.
I also conduct legal research and analysis, summarize depositions and discovery for case strategy, and maintain highly organized physical and electronic files so documents are always retrieval-ready. Outside the law office, I’ve built strong operational instincts through real estate assistant management and closing coordination—handling compliance, escrow/billing accuracy, and client communication with professionalism and confidentiality.
