Detail-oriented legal assistant combining criminal justice background with estate planning and research expertise.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a detail-oriented and driven legal assistant with a background in criminal justice and social work. I bring experience in estate planning support, legal research, and high-level client support, with a strong focus on accuracy and follow-through.
In my recent role at the Jefferson County Attorney's Office, I served as a primary point of contact for attorneys, caseworkers, and the public. I processed and filed court orders and legal documents using the Colorado Courts E-Filing system (CCE), handled confidential file maintenance, and supported office administration and special projects in a fast-paced environment.
Previously, as an Estate Planning Service Specialist at Mercer Advisors, I managed attorney calendars, helped draft estate planning documents, and coordinated with legal and advisor teams. I also conducted legal and financial research using SEC databases as a Legal Research Assistant at The DPAD Group, and I’m currently pursuing continued education through independent study and certificates to expand my professional scope.
