Need a paralegal who actually knows what they're doing - across courts, jurisdictions, and time zones? You just found him. 👋 I'm Ranz, a paralegal with 3+ years of hands-on litigation experience supporting attorneys, pro se clients, and businesses through StellarStart Global Limited, a London-based company. I manage 40+ active matters simultaneously across US federal and state courts, UK employment law, and Indian courts -- and I deliver work that holds up under scrutiny, every time. How I can help: 1. Litigation Support & Court Filings - Complaints, TRO applications, motions for default judgment, motions to file under seal, verified answers with affirmative defenses and counterclaims, oppositions to motions to dismiss, discovery requests and responses, substitutions of counsel -- across N.D. Cal., C.D. Cal., New York Supreme Court, Arizona Superior Court, Kansas District Courts, and Florida Circuit Courts. Daily CM/ECF e-filing and PACER research. I work with Clio for matter management and deadline tracking. 2. Attorney Support - I support attorneys in California and Florida across 30+ active matters. Research, motion drafting, discovery management, docket tracking, court-ready filings. I understand what attorneys need without being told twice. 3. Pro Se Support - Full support for self-represented litigants from complaint to resolution -- drafting, motion practice, discovery, procedural guidance, exhibit organization, and deadline management. As one client put it: "Your knowledge vs. budget needs are very high value, which is a mercy for me now." 4. Family Law - Dissolution of marriage, contested custody and parenting time, child support, financial disclosures, meet and confer documentation, RMC preparation, and co-parenting agreement review. Currently managing an active contested dissolution in Maricopa County Superior Court end-to-end. 5. Legal Research - Primary source research across US federal, state, UK, EU, and Indian law. Structured memos with full citations, live URLs, and change flags. No secondary summaries -- only statutes, regulations, agency guidance, and case law. 6.

Every review includes statutory cross-referencing -- not just surface reading. I'm not an attorney - but I bring the research depth, drafting precision, and procedural knowledge that makes a real difference in live cases and real transactions. From overworked attorneys to first-time pro se litigants and business owners figuring out contracts on their own -- I'm here to make your legal work faster, cleaner, and stress-free. Let's simplify your legal processes together.

I work with foreign companies, entrepreneurs, and professionals entering or operating in Brazil, advising on intellectual property (including trademarks and patents), corporate structuring, immigration, compliance, and contracts. I’m a Brazilian attorney with over 12 years of experience advising international clients on establishing a presence and doing business in Brazil and across Latin America. I work in partnership with my father, a former Federal Prosecutor recognized for his anti-corruption work by Transparency International and the Allard Prize Foundation, now focused on corporate law, compliance and governance through our firm, Carlos Fernando Santos Lima Advogados. I began my career at Bhering Advogados, a well-regarded intellectual property firm, where I worked on trademark and patent matters for international clients, and later brought that experience into my own practice. I am also a certified Data Protection and Privacy Professional (LGPD) by Data Privacy Brasil. I hold an LL.B. and a master’s degree in Translation Studies (UFPR). I work in English, German, French, Spanish and Portuguese, which allows me to navigate legal and linguistic nuances in cross-border matters. My work covers the full cycle of market entry and operations: company formation, contracts, compliance, and risk management. I advise on cross-border agreements such as service agreements, NDAs, licensing terms, MSAs, shareholder agreements, and SaaS-related contracts. I also represent clients in intellectual property matters, including trademark filings, patent translations, and representation before the Brazilian PTO (INPI) in the national phase of PCT applications, with or without PPH. For companies in technology, SaaS, fintech, and data-driven sectors, I assist with the implementation and review of privacy and data protection programs aligned with the LGPD (Brazil), GDPR (Europe), CCPA (California), and HIPAA (US healthcare). This includes governance structures, policies, contractual adjustments, and risk-based compliance strategies. I also act as an external Data Protection Officer (DPO as a Service) for companies that require an independent and legally grounded privacy function. I conduct legal due diligence and assist with regulatory processes, licensing, and risk assessments whenever needed, particularly in contexts involving cross-border operations and sensitive data processing. I also advise individuals and companies on residence and regularization matters in Brazil - including investment-based, corporate-structure, and other residence pathways - and represent clients before Brazilian federal authorities when formal representation is required. As a Brazilian lawyer and legal translator, I also provide specialized translation into Brazilian Portuguese from English, German, French, and Spanish, particularly for patents, contracts, compliance documentation, and regulatory materials. I welcome challenges, so whether you are setting up operations in Brazil, addressing immigration needs, structuring data governance, or managing a more advanced stage of growth, feel free to connect.
