I am currently seeking a full-time, paralegal or administrative position. My most recent position was with a Kantrovitz & Kantrovitz, personal injury law firm. As a personal injury paralegal, I helped draft discovery documents, motions, pleadings, and demands from templates. I also took initial calls from clients to inquire about their injury details, I sent out LORs to defendants, and subrogation letters to health insurance companies. In addition, I have some bankruptcy experience. In this role I assisted with analyzing financial documents and preparing income reports to determine eligibility for either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. In 2022, I worked for a family law attorney as a legal secretary. I coordinated hearings, mediations, and depositions. I assisted with drafting motions & pleadings and filing them with the Florida e-filing portal. I am fully accustomed to working remotely. Prior to working as a paralegal, I worked as a real estate sales agent for 8 years. Therefore, I am self-motivated and adaptable to new changes in technology and procedural changes. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration. I look forward to having the opportunity to discuss my experience in more detail.

I am expertly educated in data entry tasks, along with a plethora of other talents. I focus most of my time on pulling data as requested, working through Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and other spreadsheet-type programs. I'm also well versed in extracting PDF documents and reverting them to editable Microsoft Documents. I spent over two years as an account manager for Emissary dealing with technology sales, sales reps, etc., and loved the opportunity to further my education in technology. I believe in making myself available at all times of the day/during the week, and remain loyal to a task/job until it's completed in its entirety. I've always kept an open mind when it comes to training and learning new things. I keep myself easily accessible for trainings, meetings, phone calls, etc. to ensure I understand the task from all directions before beginning. I prioritize project check-ins to ensure the job is being completed to your standards (or above).

I’m a U.S. based Civil Litigation Paralegal with over ten years of experience supporting attorneys in active, document‑heavy civil cases. My work focuses on the procedural and organizational side of litigation, including drafting and formatting pleadings, handling state and federal e‑filings, organizing discovery, tracking deadlines, and preparing case files for hearings and trial. I’m accustomed to stepping into matters already in progress and working within established systems and workflows. Attorneys rely on me to manage filings carefully, keep files organized, and stay ahead of deadlines without requiring constant oversight. I hold a BAS in Paralegal Studies and have supported cases from pre‑litigation through post‑litigation, providing consistent, detail‑focused litigation support throughout the life of a matter.
