Hire the Best Legal Assistants in New York

Legal advice you can understand I am a New York attorney with more than 15 years of experience, offering a modern, limited-scope approach to legal services. You don’t always need an attorney to take over an entire matter. Sometimes you need a contract reviewed, a difficult legal question answered, a document drafted, a strategy developed, or an experienced lawyer to serve as a sounding board before you make an important decision. That’s where I come in. Since moving my practice exclusively online in 2018, I have focused increasingly on limited-scope (or “unbundled”) legal services. We define exactly where you need my help, and you remain informed and involved in the rest. Business Law & Contracts: I work with entrepreneurs, startups, small businesses, and established companies on a variety of legal matters including contract drafting, review, and negotiation; operating and partnership agreements; employment matters; and ongoing legal questions and strategic legal guidance. Family Law & Pro Se Support: My family law practice is now focused on helping litigants who are representing themselves. I do not appear in court on my clients’ behalf. Instead, I work behind the scenes to help pro se litigants understand the law and procedure, develop case strategy, prepare and review court documents, conduct legal research, evaluate settlement proposals, and prepare for court appearances. Representing yourself doesn’t mean doing it alone. With the right knowledge and preparation, you can remain in control of your case while getting experienced legal guidance where you need it. AI + Human Legal Judgment: AI has made legal information and drafting tools more accessible than ever, and I welcome clients who use them. But AI output isn’t legal judgment. It can miss context, misunderstand applicable law, overlook procedural requirements, or produce an answer that sounds convincing but is simply wrong. If you’ve researched an issue or prepared a legal document using AI, I can review the work, identify potential problems, and help you determine whether the approach makes sense from a legal and strategic perspective. How I Work My goal is simple: help you understand your legal situation so you can make informed decisions with confidence. I believe in straightforward communication, practical solutions, and being transparent about the work a matter actually requires. Sometimes you need extensive legal assistance. Sometimes you need an hour of an experienced attorney’s time. Part of my job is helping you determine the difference. I have been licensed to practice law in New York since 2009 and am fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Have a legal question or project in mind? Tell me what’s happening and what you need help with. We can determine the appropriate scope from there.

My skillset varies with a strong emphasis on transcription and assisting. I am able to transcribe upwards of 85+ words per minute. With exceptional communication skills and a strong grasp of the English language, I consider myself to be a great candidate for proofreading and editing. I have extensive experience coordinating both within a legal and medical setting. Should you choose to give me the opportunity to collaborate with you on projects, you will be given top performance.

I am a civil litigation paralegal. My work history includes complex matters before the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, the United states District Court for the Eastern District of New York, as well as the Supreme Court of the State of New York in the Counties of Suffolk, Nassau, Kings, Bronx, Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, Orange, as well as the District Court of Nassau County, the District Court of Suffolk County, and the New York City Civil Court. Additionally, I have experience in pre-litigation support with Federal, State and Local administrative agencies such as the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the New York State Division of Human Rights.

With over 20 years experience researching and writing legal documents and correspondence, I have developed meticulous skills in constructing well researched and vetted material for various sources. Whereas the very precise and persuasive nature of legal writing has helped me to fine tune my writing skills with a level of maturity and professionalism, my consistent enthusiasm for learning keeps my content both fresh and exciting. Having recently spent the last few years creating product descriptions for online retailers, I have further developed a more creative spin to my writing. Now, I'm looking to find new and exciting ways to offer my skills and experience by providing my clients with well researched and carefully crafted content to suit any need. From legal research and document drafting to historical essays, creative content and political analysis, I can cover it all. I look forward to working with you soon.
