I worked as a paralegal in a 3-man team working on foreclosures. As a member of this team we strived to complete our daily workload with accuracy and swiftness. We worke together as a team to find ways to improve our procedures in order for us to be more productive which in turn allows us to complete more foreclosures in a timely matter. As a paralegal I prepare documents that are recorded with the county, prioritize my daily workload, and review title reports. The most valuable experience I have gained working as a paralegal is learning the statutes pertaining to foreclosures and applying these statutes on a daily basis.
