    Are you feeling overwhelmed by the divorce process and unsure of what steps to take next? Are you feeling intimidated by the divorce process or need a clearer understanding of what to expect? Feeling lost in the divorce process and unsure of where to turn next? I can help! I’m a legal support professional, not a lawyer, offering practical tools and insights to help you stay informed and organized as you go through divorce or custody matters. Navigating the legal aspects of divorce and custody issues can be complex, but I offer clear, actionable guidance to help you understand and manage each stage with confidence. Do you know how to effectively communicate with your attorney? I provide tools and strategies to help you work better with your legal team, ensuring you're empowered to make informed decisions every step of the way. From understanding court procedures to managing the logistical and emotional challenges, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity, purpose, and a well-defined plan. My approach is strategy-focused, offering non-legal guidance to ensure your documents, actions, and timelines align with your personal and legal goals. - Understanding the divorce process: clarifying each step to ensure you know what to expect and how to prepare for what’s ahead. - Effectively talking with your attorney: providing tools and strategies to enhance your communication with your legal team for better alignment and efficiency. - Making informed decisions: helping you make educated decisions that align with your objectives and goals throughout the divorce. It's your life and your decisions make a difference on your future. - Strategist approach: offering guidance on handling the challenges and staying organized with critical documents and deadlines. - Strategic planning for success: tailoring a plan to ensure your actions and decisions support your long-term goals and outcomes. Additional Services: I'm a seasoned professional with extensive experience in drafting, research, discovery, and litigation support. Addressing financial complexities in family law cases is crucial for determining accurate child and spousal support obligations. I offer tailored services to assist family law attorneys, legal practitioners, and pro-se litigants. I provide document preparation and assistance with financial disclosures, interrogatories, notices, motions, briefs, and responses for modifications of support, custody, and contempt actions. My child and spousal support services focus on: • Analyzing financial records, including tax returns, bank statements, and business documents, to identify deficiencies in income disclosures. • Drafting interrogatories, requests for production, requests for admissions, and subpoenas to obtain essential financial data. • Identifying undisclosed income, irregularities, hidden assets, or inflated business expenses, particularly for self-employed spouses or individuals with complex financial arrangements. • Preparing detailed financial summaries and trial exhibits to effectively present income sources and support obligations in court. I prioritize confidentiality and ensure all sensitive information is handled securely. I manage projects efficiently, meet deadlines promptly, and deliver high-quality results. Time is valuable, and I ensure every project is a priority. I accept assignments only when I am confident in meeting specific requirements to deliver exceptional results.

    [UPDATE, JUNE 2025: I'm pleased and humbled to be going through a period this year of much higher demand for my services, but unfortunately that means that authors have already booked every minute of working time I have between now and this coming October 1st. If you have a project coming up later this fall, I encourage you to still drop me a line; but otherwise I'm afraid I can accommodate no more new work this summer or early fall.] From 2007 to 2017 I was the owner of the Chicago Center for Literature and Photography, which published 40 books for total distribution of over 20,000 copies. Along the way, CCLaP's books won or were finalists for a half-dozen awards, including the Pushcart Prize, the Lambda Award for LGBTQ literature, and the Independent Publisher Book Award; and the center itself was named one of the 10 best indie presses in the United States by both BookRiot.com and Poets & Writers magazine. Now I bring that same award-winning deep editing experience to your own self-published or small-press manuscript, helping you hone it with a fine knife into the best book it can possibly be. I specialize in "developmental" editing (also known as "content editing"), taking a big-picture look at your manuscript and identifying strengths and weaknesses in plot, character, pacing, style and tone, and giving you no-bones advice about how "publishable" it currently is. I also regularly do copy editing (also known as "line editing"), focusing in on a word-by-word basis to correct mistakes in what my industry calls GUPS (grammar, usage, punctuation and spelling). Other services include simple "post-production proofreading" for typos and missing punctuation; complete rewriting of entire sections of text for better clarity; specialized academic work using the Chicago Manual of Style, APA and Bluebook; and short documents like memos, web articles, website copy and promotional material for enterprise and other corporate clients. I believe in being transparent and consistent with my fees, so here are my rates in advance: Simple proofreading for typos: 0.7 cents per word Developmental editing: 1.4 cents per word Copy editing: 1.4 cents per word Developmental + copy edit: 2.4 cents per word Copy edit + extensive rewriting: 2.4 cents per word Complete Editing Package (everything above): 3 cents per word Doctoral dissertations: 4 cents per word Journalism: 5 cents per word Enterprise clients: 7 cents per word All of these rates are also open for discussion and best offers, so just drop me a line if you'd like to discuss the subject more. See my portfolio section at the bottom of the page for a broad selection of testimonials from authors I've worked with as a freelancer, links to some of the books CCLaP still has for sale at Amazon, and praise my books have garnered over the years from such publications as Publishers Weekly, Kirkus, the Chicago Tribune, HTMLGIANT, and more. I'm happy to say that I've had a top-rated designation here at Upwork (given to the top 10 percent of all freelancers based on client satisfaction scores) since January 2021 without a break, and have consistently maintained a job success score between 95% and 100% that entire time too. I look forward to hearing from you. *Proud member of the American Copy Editors Society* *Proud member of the Romance Writers of America* *Certification, Academic Copy Editing, Poynter Institute for Media Studies* ANTI-AI PLEDGE: I promise that all work I complete for clients has been, and will always be, accomplished using only my human brain and ten human fingers, never using AI bots, Grammarly, or other software options. I encourage you to demand this promise from all the freelancer candidates you interview and work with!

    As a versatile content creator, I love playing with words and colors. Whether you’re using me for writing, image design, or both, I possess a writing style that conveys sincerity and knowledgeability, and image designs that express vibrancy. My background includes being an English + Language Arts instructor, and a freelancer for several small companies’ publications to drive audience interactivity around intimacy and sexual wellness. Collectively, I’ve spent thousands of hours reviewing and lending feedback to others’ writing and projects, alongside creating my own pieces of content. Whether the scope of a project is big or small, I find joy in helping others give it wings for taking flight and being viewer-ready! What I believe sets my work apart is my ideation process and my careful eye. I start to spark original thinking and create once I feel confident of what an audience may be believing or feeling (and this is regardless of if your desired content is surface level or requires depth). So, when coming up with ideas, I will conduct multi-source research around the topics tied to your content's focus, as well as the consumer profiles of those who engage with said topics. Then, I do free thought exercises to imagine your intended audience’s perceptions and emotional responses. To me, having a careful eye means constantly dialing my focus in and out – sharpening a piece’s details, while adhering to a clear big picture / vision – and keeping this multifocus in constant dial-ogue ;-). And ultimately, a product is finished when it’s finished; i.e., I’m willing to review, reflect, and redraft as many times as it takes to get it right. I hope you’ll have a look at the samples of my work, and I can’t wait to assist you in fulfilling the best scenarios you’ve imagined for your content objectives. Working with me means you’ll have someone who is reliably responsive, and motivated to understand your goals and deliver satisfying results. Some examples of what I can do for your business, company, or individual pursuits include**: Informative articles Blog posts or essays Instagram and/or Facebook posts Brochure content Website and/or e-commerce content (ex. about us, product and category descriptions, services, etc.) Editing and proof-reading drafts of your pre-created content to get it ready for publication **This includes both original writing, and as needed, an integration of original images using Adobe Photoshop/Illustrator or staged photography

    I'm a freelance digital marketer who has advanced skills in content creation, video editing, email marketing and graphic design. I specialize in creating short-form video content for Instagram Reels, Tiktok, and YouTube Shorts where I focus on shares through implementation of scroll-stoping hooks, captivating storytelling, motion graphics and other techniques. What differentiates me from other freelancers is that I am a process AND results oriented individual who cares about creating SYSTEMS for your business. Most other freelancers are fixated strictly on the outcomes and it can cause work to be undercut in quality. This is shown through removing inessential content and elements to my work, streamlining my working process to meet tight deadlines, able to juggle multiple projects at once, take feedback from you and/or your team and provide my best work to you and help put more money in your pocket. I also offer creative input and have a fantastic understanding of how different social media algorithms work for different platforms - not one size shoe fits all. I'd love to be of assistance to you and your business. Please reach out to caseyestescreative@gmail.com with additional questions/inquiries!
