As a legal assistant at Domingo Elias & Vu, I primarily aided a partner and associate attorney with matters relating to workers' compensation defense. I have nearly a year in experience in filing with the WCAB and drafting petitions alongside proofs of service. I also have many hours of experience reviewing medical reports, communications between counsel, and settlement drafting.
While file clerking at G3PM, I assisted in the maintenance and organization of all the firms records and intake of mail. I was also responsible for outgoing mail handling as well as pulling relevant and recent records prior to attorney hearings. I organized documents for trial preparation and assisted with receptionist matters when needed.
Formerly an intern at AVN Law, I was hired as a legal assistant and front desk receptionist responsible for filing claims, intaking new claims, and overseeing personal injury records, archives, and mail. I worked alongside paralegals and attorneys in case research using Lexis Nexis and am familiar with calendaring depositions, intakes, hearings and filing due dates for two attorneys. I additionally participated in drafting demand and counter demand letters between opposing counsels as well as discovery of records from doctors, dashcam footage, and police reports.
As an intern with AVN law, I gained first-hand experience of working at a law office and observed the daily habits of attorneys, paralegals, and administrative persons alike. I interviewed attorneys as well as led a research project in the field of probate law, wherein I was introduced into using Lexis Nexis and exploring court websites for guides regarding filing, jurisdiction, and the levels of the court system.
in my time at Titan Shops, I was promoted from an initial sales associate to a shift lead within a year. In this position, I was responsible for training of new hires, sales and returns, and overseeing the food stock department. I spent time stocking and pulling expired food, unloading received orders, and distributing items between the 3 stores on campus at Cal State Fullerton.
