Legal Assistant
At this firm I held a dual role of a legal assistant/paralegal, I participated in the attorney’s trial proceedings by preparing exhibits, reviewing motions & summarizing trial transcripts. Everyday tasks included organizing appeals, pleadings & discovery responses in both physical & electronic filing systems for multiple cases, while I monitored phone and email memos. I also assisted with keeping track of motions, court deadlines & correspondence with opposing counsel for further advancement of each case. Very importantly, I used my skills and abilities to enhance the litigation process by performing legal research & creating tables to display statistical evidence from client documents produced.
