Description
I am a Legal Assistant with over 30 years experience with mid- to law-size law firms. I assist the attorney in the preparation and filing of various plaintiff or defense pleadings in state or federal court; draft discovery responses and identify documents to be produced; prepare discovery responses in final form and serve those responses on opposing counsel; draft and prepare in final form discovery to be propounded upon opposing parties and service of same; schedule site inspections and depositions; schedule pre-inspection and pre-deposition meetings with experts and clients; schedule mediation conferences with mediators; and transcribe dictation of correspondence and documents dictated by counsel. I draft miscellaneous correspondence and documents and prepare same in final form in behalf of counsel. I maintain and/or supervise the upkeep of case files; maintain counsel’s calendar and schedule of events; make counsel's travel arrangements; calculate counsel’s travel expenses and submit same for reimbursement; transcribe and enter counsel’s time on a monthly basis; enter time entries that I had generated in behalf of counsel; and any other assignments as instructed by counsel. It is my hope that I can continue my career as a Legal Assistant long-term with a firm who has friendly and helpful employees, and with whom I can develop a "home away from home family."
