What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote role that values legal precision and offers growth opportunities.

I am a detail-obsessed Legal Admin and Executive Assistant with over 6 years of experience supporting attorneys and leadership teams in high-pressure legal environments. My expertise spans High Court litigation, mining law, and commercial law, where I have consistently streamlined legal workflows and managed confidential data with precision.

Throughout my career, I have achieved remarkable results, including a 98% accuracy rate in document preparation and a 30% improvement in turnaround times. I pride myself on my ability to maintain strict confidentiality and uphold professional ethics while delivering exceptional administrative support. I am actively seeking a remote opportunity aligned with U.S. hours, where I can contribute my legal precision and administrative skills to a fast-paced team.
