This is a do-it-all position - draft and e-file Complaints and Motions; draft, organize and send Demand Packages; trial preparation; docketing; order medical records; answer all phones and emails; order supplies and act as Office Manager.

- Not being able to find a job immediately, I contracted myself out to various law firms for part-time or one-time hire project work, doing everything from overflow work to writing Complaints, drafting and sending Interrogatories, photographing accident scenes, initial client contact and case summaries and delivery of documents to other law firms, infirm clients and courthouses. I made initial client contact by providing a professional introduction, establishing communication, gathering requirements and building a strong rapport with clients.
