File Clerk/ Secretary
I maintained the filing system of a large personal injury practice for the managing partner and a junior partner of one of the most prestigious law firms in the San Joaquin Valley, including approximately 300 clients in various stages of litigation. My duties included indexing correspondence, investigation, subpoenaed records, discovery, expert folders, depositions, bills paid, medical records, and pleadings. This process requires the utilization of a legal document index for all pleadings. I was required to make photocopies of large files for the production of documents, and medical records. I also purged and closed settled files and sent them to storage. I provided back-up phone coverage for the department, ran miscellaneous errands, and ensured that the attorneys had the files updated and on their desk for every hearing for the following day.
