I research, draft, and support public-sector legal matters and litigation preparation.
What I'm looking for
I've supported the Ministry of Land and Legal Affairs in Trinidad and Tobago with substantive legal research, legal opinions, statutory interpretation, case-law analysis, and drafting assignments prepared for senior legal review and Ministerial consideration.
I draft commercial agreements, Cabinet Notes, formal Ministry correspondence, and comparative legislative amendment schedules. My work has covered public and administrative law, criminal procedure, professional regulation, marriage law, police powers, licensing, and judicial-review considerations.
At the Registrar General's Department Land Registry, I coordinated legal files, reviewed documents for registry compliance, and built a daily tracking and reporting system in a high-volume legal environment. I'm completing my Legal Education Certificate at Hugh Wooding Law School and am open to remote legal assistant, paralegal, legal research, and litigation support opportunities.
